Wind and temperature at Erjavčeva koča
Almost one million people visit Slovenia’s mountains each year, which can give people a false sense of security. The most common causes of accidents are lack of physical fitness, being mentally unprepared, inadequate equipment, or lacking the skill and knowledge necessary for technical climbs.
Slovenians take precautions very seriously. Despite having some of the best climbers in the world, their best climbers are very humble and careful before heading off into the mountains. If the conditions aren’t safe, they know the mountain will be there tomorrow and will always be another day.
Following guidelines is essential, but before heading off alone, you can carefully research and read about your routes and options and ask locals about the local weather patterns.
Understanding the weather in the Slovenian Alps (thunderstorms in the summer, for example) and the terrain, you are travelling through (often over limestone rock, which gets very slippery and wet) is crucial to planning a safe adventure. Please keep in mind the change in temperatures. You could have a beautiful summer day down in the valley and then get hit by winter conditions on the mountain, so be sure to have the right equipment. Always look out for growing cloud formations, storm clouds, and changes in weather or temperature.
