My Triglav experience too... this weekend. Due to my fear of heights I always put off Triglav to next season for that reason, though I really wanted to stand on Slovenia's highest peak. Even to prove to myself and friends I can do it. Not a huge mountain fan (not weekly) but I like going.
We went via Pokljuka (said to be longest but not true... probably easiest), to Planika (wonderful). From there same day to top. Lots of people but no problem for me, had time for rests and views. Realized everyone met was friendly patient. Encouraged each other esp those afraid. Wanted to turn back few times but husband and other hikers helped me succeed. At top tears of joy and photos for self and friends. For others' encouragement...down from top I was real climber... Summary: Triglav piece of cake for some, personal success for others. Easy without fear. Overcoming fear counts most for me. And... even if not reached top wouldn't stress. Congrats to all met on path who didn't reach top for any reason! Next time safety first! Those who hate crowds why go anyway knowing Triglav busiest in summer? Also: stayed at Planika (booked rooms by phone) cos probably no stamina for up and down in one day. Nice two-day trip not rushing back forth. GOOD LUCK ALL!!!

It's already snowing at Kredarica, if anyone is interested...

Let's hope it doesn't mess it up too much.

If it helps you, I can tell you that sleeping at Dolič costs 20€ or 10€ if you're a PD member.

On the internet page of the Alpine Association of Slovenia there are prices for accommodations for association members and non-members, check a bit, lp

All together it costs you over 16 euros per person-if you take a room. Because there's also some ecological supplement included, and I think sheets too.
Tomorrow, if you're really heading up, good luck and safe steps.

Aja, I forgot to write that this is the price if you're a member of some mountaineering club.

Well after all that's been written about this crowd and parties in the huts I'm glad I avoided it this year too. Interestingly I go to Triglav mostly because of other people who have a huge desire to go up. I don't have that strong desire in me. And precisely for that reason because I really don't like crowds. The mere thought of sleeping in huts: Planika, Kredarica, Stanič, Dolič repels me even more. Like in an anthill. Consequently noise, trash, and lots you see that doesn't belong in the mountains. In my collection of about 60 two-thousanders Triglav is indeed the highest but in beauty and peace far in the background. The chamois on your last picture surely isn't a kid. This year's chamois kid doesn't have larger horns than 5-10cm yet. The one in the picture obviously has them "over the ears". Probably a young adult female chamois but really can't see it best.

Abby also my sincere congrats for reaching the summit. You just like me on Saturday overcame yourself and experienced your personal success. I too shed a few tears of joy at the top which many probably find hard to understand except the people who helped you realize your wish. Many safe steps ahead.
