Do you want to easily reach a 2000 metres high peak, with glorious views over Triglav and surrounding mountains? Then this hike is suitable for you, your friends, family and children. After just two hours of hiking, you will be rewarded with one of the best mountain panoramas in the region. On the way back you can also try traditional Slovenian food in a picturesque alpine hut. A great way to discover the Julian Alps and its mountain culture!
From Bled, we will drive to the 1300 metres of high Pokljuka plateau, covered with mystic spruce forests and pastures. After 1 hour of hiking, we will first reach the Bled mountain cottage on Lipanca, where we can have a short break for coffee or tea. From here, we will continue on a route towards the summit of Mt. Debela peč, which runs mostly through dwarf pines and takes about 1:30 hours.
The 2014-metre-high mountain Debela peč is one of the most popular destinations for hikers. With a grassy top and a domed shape, it is the easternmost peak in the mountain range, ending the Pokljuka plateau and falling steeply into the alpine Krma Valley.
On the way down, we will make a stop at the Bled mountain cottage. The hut is located on the edge of the panoramic mountain pasture Lipanca at an altitude of 1630 metres. From the hut the magnificent views open to vast Pokljuka forests and the peaks of Mrežce and Lipanski vrh that surround the mountain. Here, you can relax, use the restrooms, and try traditional Slovenian food, such as jota or ričet with sausage or without, žganci, delicious onion potatoes, and homemade strudel.
From the hut, we will need around 30 minutes to descend down to the starting point. The guide will drive you back to Bled.
