Slovenians have climbing in the blood. This is proven both by the many first ascents by Slovenian mountaineers in the world's highest mountain ranges, and by the outstanding achievements of sport climbers who have been among the world's best for a number of years. We also have the first ever women's Olympic champion in sport climbing! So it's no surprise that in Slovenia you'll find many possibilities for climbing adventures, both great and small.
In addition to the mountaineering routes in the Slovenian mountains, you can also encounter natural and artificial climbing sites and climbing centres with routes of varying degrees of difficulty. In recent years, via ferratas have become a real hit - these are secured climbing sites, which can be climbed by virtually anyone. Take your climbing equipment and helmet, enter a climbing paradise, and the sky will be your limit.
