Triglav: Slovenia’s Sacred Mountain
Mount Triglav, at 2,864 meters, is Slovenia's highest peak and a revered symbol of national identity. Known as "Holy Mountain," it signifies pride, resilience, and cultural heritage.
The name "Triglav," meaning "three heads," reflects both its triple peaks and connections to ancient Slavic mythology. This sacred site is integral to Slovenia’s culture, appearing on the national coat of arms.
As part of Triglav National Park, the mountain boasts stunning landscapes and rich biodiversity. The climb to the summit is a spiritual journey for many Slovenians, highlighted by the Aljaž Tower, a symbol of patriotism. Reaching Triglav is not just a physical feat; it’s a deep connection to nature and heritage.
