In-Depth Information
It is a popular weekend destination for all manner of activity, from hiking and mountain
biking to fishing and rafting. And there are approaches from Bohinj, Kranjska Gora and,
in Primorska, Trenta - to name just a few gateways.
Marked trails in the park lead to countless peaks and summits besides Mt Triglav. Fa-
vourite climbs include Mangart (2679m) on the Italian border (the 12km road that des-
cends to the Predel Pass is the highest road in Slovenia), the needlepoint of Jalovec
(2645m) in the north, and the sharp ridge of Razor (2601m) southeast of Vršič.
Triglav National Park is not only about climbing mountains. There are easy hikes
through beautiful valleys, forests and meadows, too. Two excellent maps for this purpose
are the PZS 1:50,000-scale
Triglavski Narodni Park
(
Triglav National Park
; €8.50) and
Freytag & Berndt's 1:50,000
Julische Alpen
for €9.
