Your trek in Slovenia with Grand Angle

Why choose Slovenia for your next trek?

Slovenia is an excellent destination for hikers, often described as one of Europe’s best-kept secrets, with 2 outstanding hiking regions: Triglav National Park, the Julian Alps and the Karavanke.

The beating heart of Slovenia, Triglav National Park is a must-see. It is home to the country’s highest peak, Mount Triglav (2864 m), a national symbol. It is an exceptional playground for mountain lovers.

Beyond Triglav, Slovenia offers other equally appealing mountain ranges. The Karavanke, on the border with Austria, offer panoramic ridges and quieter trails.

Our travel options for Slovenia: self-guided or group hiking?

At Grand Angle, we know that every hiker has their own preferences. That is why we offer two ways to discover Slovenia.

Our self-guided hiking trips are designed for those who enjoy walking at their own pace. We arrange your accommodation and luggage transfers, and provide you with detailed route notes. All you need to do is enjoy every moment with peace of mind, as on our hiking trip “From the Karavanke to Triglav: A Mountain Hut Trek”.

For those who value shared experiences and an expert’s knowledge, our guided hiking trips are the perfect option. Led by a professional with a passion for their region, you explore the secrets of the local wildlife, plant life and culture in a small group. You can look forward to an enriching experience, as on our trip “From the Slovenian Alps to the Adriatic Sea”.
