Path completely snow-free, snow only a bit below planika.

Saturday start 5:30, krma, planika - triglav - planika - krma, in valley at 16.00. But physically poorly prepared, so had some trouble with cramps, but both who were first time had no problems.
Weather super, except cloudy at the top.

Maybe some change in weather? Doesn't look best, local rains and thunderstorms coming.

As for 1 day - Triglav. I had dilemma too, we have 2 in group who haven't been, but from Krma and early enough, they'll go ahead....think no problems.

And another praise for hribi.net forum, always check conditions when heading out, very up-to-date, not just for Triglav! Comments excellent too

Hi,

Personally I'd wait another year or two sure before going to symbol of Slovenian mountaineering. 7 years too early for me though I was up at 9 myself.

Friday we plan one-day tour too wonder if others plan due to weather etc?

Thanks, lp

@doctor

Everyone finds their own path, if you ask beforehand from people who know what they're talking about it's even better. That's smart, not stupid...

Otherwise, weekend succeeded perfectly. Was on Triglav, slept at Kredarica. Fog and occasional wind at the top, but otherwise under 2700 meters constant sun.
Good luck to all who are still going up this year

@redbull, @Trobec,

I completely agree with you. Probably need to go to the summit on Sunday, because Saturday will have bad weather, but going only to Stanič on Saturday is too short...
Thanks for the answers, I'm glad that when I come to the forum, someone actually wants to help and give a smart tip, 1A.

If I were alone it wouldn't be a problem, but since I'm going with my partner who has been preparing for approx. 3 months building fitness, and it would be her first Triglav ascent, sleeping on a bench doesn't appeal to her
One day is still too much for the first time, in my opinion.

I've booked accommodation at Valentin Stanič hut, morning from Krma to Planika and Triglav, descent via Kredarica to Stanič for overnight and Sunday descent.
I hope for nice weather already on Saturday, crowds but expected in August

Thanks for the answers.

It looks like nice weather, especially on Sunday.
I inquired yesterday about available beds and all are booked at Planika as well as Kredarica, including shared dorms.
Is there anything to be done, given I only have this weekend in August available.

Hello,

I'm reading the forum, news and Triglav hike experiences with great pleasure. Praise for so many responses and stories.

But I have a question, hoping for an answer.
This coming weekend 6 and 7 August I plan to go to Triglav from Rudno polje via Planika. Going fifth time, but never on this route and to Planika, is reservation needed for sleeping? Expecting big crowds? And how about the weather, forecast bad on Saturday.
Also, is it better Saturday direct to Triglav and sleep over, next day and depending on weather?

Thanks for answers and best regards
