Skydiving Slovenia

  While in beautiful Slovenia we deciding to do something a bit more adventurous during our stay in Bled.

We had done a small version before but basically were... read more climbing novices.

We met our guide Jan at their offices early in the morning and he was immediately full of chat and cheer.

Jan explained that he only takes groups of up to 4 on these trips and as it happened it was just myself and my wife with Jan on the day. This made it much more personalised and relaxed than a big group.

There is initially a lovely drive followed by a 40 min hike. Then climbing the mountain for about 2 hours. This is both while attached with cables and sometimes without. There are some exposed parts and it was quite thrilling up there. The views throughout were immense.

We felt very safe with our guide Jan and he was very professional. But he was also full of chat and interesting information and it felt a bit like being up there with a friend. The climbing was so much fun but we also enjoyed the conversation and the time flew.

The view at the top was amazing and after a rest there is a steep hike down with a really fun scree run at the end if you’re up for it and in decent footwear.

I would highly recommend this tour if you are in the area and looking for something a little different. Both the company and Jan were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and the climb was so much fun. It was probably the best day of our entire trip, which is saying something given how beautiful and varied Slovenia and how much we enjoyed the holiday.

Thanks again Jan!
