    I was lucky to have had Alex take us on another tour equally great the 7 wonders tour. This climb was equally wonderful and Alex as before was very kind and very helpful. We come from a very flat part of the UK and haven't got experience doing this sort of activity especially with hiking poles. Alex throughout gave us confidence and guidance especially on the descent. I highly recommend this outdoor activity company.

    This hike was amazing from start to finish. Aleksandra, our guide, was funny, patient, accommodating and made the entire group feel safe so that we could enjoy the terrain of this amazing path. Fortunately, we had perfect weather for our hike, but keeping an eye on the forecast is a must since weather can change quickly. The guide made sure we knew that she was watching the weather closely not only the day of but days prior. Highly recommend this hike and company for your experience. Looking forward to booking my next adventure with them next time I am here. Mary

    We did the via ferrata up the historical route of Mojstrovka - an incredible experience and best tour guide/tour company one can ask for. Not only was our guide Jerry was amazing guy but his wealth of experience in the mountains was second to none and wouldn’t have been as fun without him. This is the number one guide for the mountains!

    Timotei took us on a STUNNING hike in the Julian Alps to the summit of Debela Pec on NYE. The views on the way up and on the summit are truly panoramic - we took a million photos. My husband and I do a lot of hiking but we had never been on a hike in the snow - Timotei had crampons/microspikes for us which made the hike easy and fun and we had an unforgettable day in the mountains. The hike is about 10 miles long (16km), with 3000ft of elevation gain (1000m) so some fitness is required, as there are a few steep sections. We stopped at the hut on the way back for an awesome, traditional Slovenian lunch (stew with sausage) and mulled wine. All together a very memorable day - we very much hope to come back and if we do we will certainly be reaching out to Timotei to guide us again.

    Debela peč, name of a mountain, can be translated as fat rocks. You can climb to this interesting mountain on your own in good weather. First, you need good mountain shoes. Hiking sticks are useful, too. Take a small backpack with some drinks, water or tea is the best. Use your car (or bike) and drive to Pokljuka, as near to Lipanca hut as you can. There are three possibilities for the start. One is near Medvedova konta and two starting points near the pasture called Zajavornik (1 h from Športhotel on Pokljuka). Mountain bikes can be used up to the Lipanca hut. From the starting point you have just 40 to 50 minutes to the Lipanca if you are walking. Lipanca is a group of houses. One is mountain hut with some food and drinks. From Lipanca hikers walk up for less than 1 h and 45 minutes. Path is steep but not dangerous at all. It is signed and is easy for orientation except in fog. When you come to the ridge, you have just 15 more minutes to the top. View is exceptional. So, you walk from 2 hours 15 minutes with young legs up to 3 hours for older ones. This trip is a good choice.

    What to expect

    Pickup from your Bled accommodation at 8:00 AM, followed by a 30-minute drive to the Pokljuka plateau at 1,300 meters. From the Medvedova Konta car park, you hike through dense spruce forest for around 45 minutes before reaching Planina Lipanca — a beautiful alpine meadow at 1,630 meters with traditional Slovenian farm buildings and the cozy Lipanca mountain hut, where you can stop for local food and drinks before continuing (own expense). From Lipanca, the trail steepens through larch forest and open rocky terrain to the summit of Debela Peč at 2,014 meters — one of the most accessible peaks above 2,000 meters in Slovenia. The 360-degree panorama takes in Triglav and the Julian Alps to the north and west, the Karavanke Ridge bordering Austria to the east, and on clear days Lake Bled to the south. You retrace the route back down, covering around 10 km with 700 meters of elevation gain in approximately 3 hours of hiking. Sturdy hiking shoes, layers, and water are essential. Back in Bled by early afternoon.
