Climbing on Mt. Mangart

Mt Mangart (2678 m) is a peak of the Julian Alps, lying in the border between Italy and Slovenia. It is Slovenia's fourth highest mountain and is very popular during the summer months due to its convenient access. Namely, the Mangart road (Slovenia's highest road) takes you above 2000 altitude meters just below Mangart's rocky summit pyramid. The road ends at the Mangart saddle. From there, we'll hike about 30 minutes until we reach the entrance of the Slovenian via ferrata route. There are two routes running across it: the Slovene route is rather demanding, but the Italian is somewhat easier, that fore we will climb on the easier route down. This is a relatively short tour onto a majestic mountain with a magnificent view. Either way, the mountain is fantastic!

It will take between 1 to 2 hours to complete the route. Even though it's quite technical, it's still suitable for beginners. Finally, we'll descent on the Italian route, back to the Mangart saddle.
