Climbing routes for all

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.

This is Janja. The “G.O.A.T.” of sport climbing

The name Janja Garnbret will have a special place in sport climbing history. With her prowess on the wall, she pushes the boundaries of what’s possible, and stuns the climbing community with every performance. She was the first sport climber who managed to win all the world cup bouldering competitions in one season. Janja was also the first climber to take home all three titles of world champion at one championship – in lead climbing, bouldering and the combined discipline. And she was the first female climber to become Olympic champion, at the first Olympic Games to include sport climbing. This is Janja. Discover her way of getting to the top. Her energy. Janja.
