Mountaineering in Slovenia

Tine Mihelič, eden izmed naših najplodovitejših piscev alpinističnih in gorniških vodnikov, je za tuje obiskovalce slovenskih gora priredil izbor in opisal skoraj 50 visokogorskih tur in 35 lažjih izletov. Glavnina knjige je posvečena naši največji gorski verigi Julijskim Alpam, dobra tretjina pa ciljem v Karavankah in Kamniško-Savinjskih Alpah. Knjiga je bogato opremljena s fotografijami, pomemben prispevek k vizuelni odličnosti pa je prispeval alpinist in slikar Danilo Cedilnik – Den kot avtor natančnih in preglednih akvarelov opisanih gora oz. posameznih izletov.

Tine Mihelič is one of the best connoisseurs of the Slovene mountains. The volume introduces over 80 tours, from relatively easy medium-altitude trips and walks to serious high-mountain tours and traverses.The Julian Alps hold a central position in this guide, being the mightiest mountain range in Slovenia. Nevertheless the author has added ascents to the most important summits of the Karavanke and the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, which though smaller in extent, are no les interesting for the attractiveness of their destinations. This selection of tours represents the most beautiful that the mountains of Slovenia can offer and at the same time invites you to discover this easternmost part of the Alpine chain.
