This summer I'm heading to Bovec for the 3rd time. I'd like to go with my girlfriend on a full-day, maybe two-day hike to Triglav or Kredarica, I've already been up there but we took another very tough path. Now I'm interested where there's some easier path, or is it best to drive from Pokljuka and start there or can you go from Bovec too, and how long does it approximately take to hike from where.
thanks for answers.
best regards

On this link below you'll find lots of descriptions of paths to Triglav. Check them a bit and then decide which path will be most suitable for you two.

I really haven't been to Triglav in the last couple of years, but a few years ago I went from several directions. The hardest seemed to me from Vrata via Tominškova and Kredarica, a bit easier to start from Vrata via Prag. Then I went from Pokljuka to Vodnikova and then from Planika to the summit. The nicest seems to me to start from Krma to Vodnikova and Planika to the top, although it's one of the longest approaches. The fastest is from Kot via Staničeva and Rž to Kredarica and to the top. But this path is a bit annoying to me because of Kot which is at least annoying to me. It's a nice starting point for Rjavina and Vrbanove Špice, where I've been and both paths impressed me. I haven't gone from Vrata to Luknja and Plamenice yet, which is considered the hardest approach and recommended only for experienced hikers. I also haven't gone from Posoški directions to Dolič yet. This year I plan to visit our champion again. Nice hiking greetings!

from Vrata via Tominškova I was there last year when we had an organized hike to Triglav with SV, I have to say that for me coming from Prekmurje this path was quite tough, but also adrenaline-packed...-))

From my experience (hiked all directions) the easiest way to Triglav is: Pokljuka or Voje - Vodnikov dom - Planika - Triglav.

Debates on which path to Triglav is the easiest will probably never die down, but certainly competing are the one mentioned by joža x and the one from Dolič up (and however we get to Dolič; say from Zadnjica). Tine Mihelič in the Julian Alps mountaineering guide (I mention it because it's a top classic of this literature) writes for the Dolič approach: "This is probably the easiest path to Triglav, which however is not without steep sections."
So, since almost every Slovene knows something to say about paths to Triglav and experiences them very subjectively, I suggest to you, aleš81, that you (not only in this case) first rely on authorized guide literature and only as a supplement use internet sources (especially photo material can be illustrative), which are more up-to-date but less reliable. Why do so? Also because book guide literature is usually more objective and more comprehensively covers the topic in one place. For example, in the aforementioned Julian Alps guide (there are many others too) the author covers Triglav from historical, sociological, geographical, guiding and some other perspectives. Almost everyone besides descriptions of accessible paths (and curiosities along them) is surely also interested in the view from Triglav summit, which is certainly described much better in the mentioned guide than one of those "know-it-all experts" who almost every moment lurk around the Aljaž Tower for "ignorant" visitors. Good choice!

Šodrovec, well written.
Anyway, aleš81, which tough path did you take the first time to Triglav? There's no easy one to the top.
With that Tine assessment of the easiest approach one can certainly agree.
Regards.

If you are once in Bovec, drive to Zadnjica, that's in Trenta, and from there you can go to Triglav. The path is very easy, just a bit long. We did it last year and went to Triglav in one day. Up and down we hiked 13 hours, rested plenty, ate at Dolič and took lots of nice pictures. You have to count that there were also kids 9 and 10 years old and if those two did the path easily in one day, you two will too.
This year we're going again but from Vrata via Prag, and also in one day. Lp.

Although a well-intentioned optimistic approach is usually appropriate, I still think it's very hard to compare psychophysical abilities of your own children (whom you have, say, on a leash) with psychophysical abilities of someone you don't know. It can even be dangerous for someone to take the path to Triglav, even the "easiest" one, as "child's play".
But I didn't come because of the above. I wanted to add that the path from Zadnjica via Dolič to Triglav is the one with the greatest elevation difference. That's why it might make sense to consider a leisurely two-day tour, which leaves fewer negative consequences for the less prepared and on top offers experiencing evening and morning high in the mountains. It's appropriate to mention here what most hillwalkers already know well (but not yet described in classic guide literature ), that last year's avalanche damaged the hut at Dolič and thus significantly reduced capacities. How it will be this year with provisioning and overnight stays they'll know at PD Gorje. The nearest "replacement" hut is Planika.
Maybe take a partly circular Zadnjica-Dolič-Planika-Triglav-Dolič-Zadnjica, along the way check the romance of shared bunks and at the same time get to know two approaches to the summit and thus find out yourselves which one is easier for you (!). Good luck!
