✔ IFMGA-certified mountain guide

Andraž specializes in high-alpine work — bigger terrain, more exposed routes, and the kind of day that hinges on a single conditions call. Quiet, dryly funny, with the kind of focus on safety and conditions that doesn't wane, even on a day that looks easy.

The pull behind it all is skiing in every form and the urge to climb mountain faces in whatever the range hands out. That drive has taken him on expeditions across the Alps, the United States, and Patagonia, and his experience allows him to read a route before the group has tied their bootlaces. He is also a ski instructor and canyoning guide.

Bine spends close to 365 days a year in the mountains and never gets tired of them. As he puts it, he rests his body at the beach, and his mind among the summits. A Sports Science graduate from the University of Ljubljana, he came to Alpine guiding the long way: from competitive mountain biking to becoming a seven-time National Slopestyle Champion and one of Slovenia’s freeskiing pioneers.

His adventures fit his high energy; from exploring Slovenian ridges near his hometown, Kranj, to Dolomites and Mont Blanc region in summer, and freeride and ski-mountaineering in winter. When not guiding, he can usually be found speed flying, paragliding, mountain biking, climbing, or surfing.

Žiga is an IFMGA aspirant mountain guide with a passion for mountaineering, alpine climbing, rock climbing, and ski touring. Calm and dependable in the mountains, he enjoys helping clients move confidently through technical terrain and challenge themselves in a safe and supportive environment.

Friendly and adaptable in character, he works with a wide range of experience levels and values both the movement through the mountains and the experience shared along the way — in summer and winter. He is the kind of guide that makes a grueling stretch in the hills feel easier.

✔ IFMGA-licensed mountain guide

Blaž is a mountain guide from Ruše. Steady, down-to-earth, with a dry sense of humour and the no-big-deal delivery of someone who's seen a lot of mountains. Clear plans, sensible pacing, calm decisions when conditions shift.

The mileage behind that easy presence is substantial: thirty-five years of climbing, seven Himalayan expeditions (plus treks led there), Patagonia in 2004, Alaska in 2012 and 2014, routes in the Central Alps, Dolomites, and Scotland. Guiding since 2012 — rock, ice, winter ascents, ski touring, sport, via ferratas — and Slovenia's own mountains year-round. It‘s seen in the way he times a start, a break, or swaps a plan.

Friendly, grounded, and always up for a good day out — Žiga is the kind of guide who makes a group feel looked after from the first step to the last, providing easygoing company on the trail. He has been spending time in the mountains since 2005, and the years show up in the small choices — pacing, timing, weather reads — that keep a day running smoothly without anyone noticing it being run.

His favourite are classic alpine days, long ridgelines, and scenic trips where the ascent matters as much as the summit. Outside the guiding season he runs bouldering and rope-climbing courses in Kamnik as a mentor and instructor.

Jan is calm, observant, and naturally good at keeping a group together without making the day feel managed. He's patient when someone needs a breather, decisive when timing matters, and his dry humour tends to land just as the trail steepens.

He is detail-oriented in the best way: adjusting the plan for weather and conditions early and choosing routes that flow well for the group.

Summer takes him onto demanding marked trails — long ridgelines, scrambly sections, the bigger linkups — while winter pulls him into easier snow terrain, where pace, layering, and a steady read of the snowpack matter more than speed.

✔ ZGVS-registered guide

Rock climbing, multipitch, ski touring, alpinism, scrambling,... Uroš is calm and measured in conversation, but his mountain climbing streak is anything but. He's been guiding through his local climbing club since 2015, earned his IFMGA aspirant licence in 2021, and carries years of Alpine routes behind him that show up in how he reads weather, conditions and group pacing on the day.

Safety and comfort come first, always. The bonus comes if you stick around long enough at a break: he'll pull you into a conversation about mountain history or local geography that ends up being as memorable as the climb itself.

✔ PZS-certified Mountain Guide, qualified for leading demanding via ferratas

Alenka lives below Krn, in the heart of the Soča Valley. Quietly determined and deeply connected to the Slovenian mountains, she guides across the a full spectrum of hikes — from marked trails to more demanding alpine terrain. She gives each the same level of attention; safety and the participants' enjoyment come first.

Her heart belongs above all to the Julian Alps. Every year she returns to Chamonix with new guests, to Austrian via ferratas, to the Dolomites, and to the climbing crags of Dalmatia. In winter she is equally at home on touring skis as in steep winter couloirs and on winter ascents across the European ranges.

✔ ISF Pro-level Snowboard Coach

✔ Canyoning Guide Level II

Born near the iconic Lake Bled and spending many days hiking alongside his father, Luka came to know the region's Alpine flora and fauna early — along with the traditions and legends woven into it.

With over a decade of experience in the tourism and outdoor industry, he began his career as a high rope course instructor. Over the years he earned professional certifications as an international mountain guide, a canyoning instructor, and a professional snowboard and ski coach.

Friendly, communicative, and a sharp problem-solver, passionate about sharing the authentic Slovenian experience—from its stories and cuisine to unforgettable adventures in nature.

Matija lives in Mojstrana, fifteen kilometres from Triglav's north face. Growing up in an alpine-oriented family, he started competing in sport climbing early on, at the age of six, later switching to alpine and trad climbing.

In the summer, you can often find him on the alpine classics — the Matterhorn, the Eiger, the Cima Grande — while in the coldest months he keeps closer to home: ice routes, ski tours, and the Triglav north face itself.

He's driven by a deep love of the mountains and appreciation of alpinism. His bigger dream is to find peace in not always going to the limit. His working motto: proper preparation prevents poor performance.

✔ PZS Planinski vodnik 2 (PZS2)

Jakob, a certified AAS leader, is the youngest member of our guide family, but that does not affect his guiding skills. He is a true nature lover who always brings joy to every trip. Being well-organised, adaptable, and highly professional when it comes to making decisions, he brings on the trail the stability and certainty that matches his seniors.

He always strives to give clients what they want and what they came for. With him, you will always feel safe and never bored. His "Hakuna Matata" hat perfectly describes the relaxed and positive vibe he brings to every hike.

Home, refuge, and the best place to think — this is what the mountains mean to Alenka. She comes from a sporting family: her father built the Krvavec ski resort, her brother was the first professional Yugoslav skier in the US, and she raced alpine until 17.

She explored Kamnik-Savinja Alps first, then the Julian Alps, then spent summers in the Austrian Alps, Dolomites, Carnic Alps, the Caucasus — always drawn to off-trail routes and the quiet. She spends winters ski touring Haute Route, Gran Paradiso, Monte Rosa, Grossglockner etc. Alenka is the guide that stops to point out endemic flowers and herbs or name the birds, and teaches respect for the environment that we all admire.
