Hiking through the Julian Alps in winter is magical. The air is fresh and cold, the high spruces are nicely decorated with snow patches, and the white landscape is all sparkly and glittering. Snow-covered mountains are the place to be when finding total peace and serenity. Walking through the icy landscapes can be very difficult if you don’t have the right equipment. That’s why it’s good to have microspikes wherever you go in winter. You just put them in your shoes and overcome the slippery parts of the path.
