Flower Hike on Golica

Day Tour, pick-up in Bled / Lesce

The hike to Golica is a true springtime spectacle, renowned for its vast fields of wild white daffodils that blanket the slopes from early May to early June, when they are in full bloom. But Golica’s appeal goes far beyond its floral beauty. From the summit, hikers are rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views—not only of the surrounding Alps and Mt. Triglav, but also stretching as far as Austria’s highest peak, Grossglockner.

This stunning hike is best suited for those in good physical condition, offering a perfect balance of natural beauty and awe-inspiring vistas. The route can also be extended to include additional flower-covered slopes and a scenic walk along the ridge.

Stats: 650 m of ascent and descent; 11 km. If extended – 900 m of ascent and descent; 16 km

Itinerary

After our morning meeting in Bled, we drive to the trailhead and start walking up a winding path through a forest. Once past the tree line, the views of the long ridge and an enchating wooden hut can be amazing on a clear day. We take our so-called "flower route" to visit all the beautiful spots on Golica with flowering daffodils, while we also hike to the peak. We stick to a scenic trail across the open ridge and thus enjoy views of Slovenia on one side and Austria on the other. Our winter route takes us to a neighboring peak with excellent views of Mt. Golica.

"Seriously a miraculous hike! We did it when the flowers were out and that looks like walking in the best botanical garden, only here everything is 100% natural. Amazing scenery and the flowery smells!"

Brittany & Seb

"We were a bit skeptical about doing the Golica hike in winter, however, it turned out to be beautiful. Due to a heavy snowfall the day prior, the guide decided it was safer to go to a neighbouring peak with the view of Golica and we must say that we loved it. She took us to high mountains at about 2000 m and we could enjoy views of Slovenia, Austria and also the rest of the alps. The guide taught us a lot about how to use the winter hiking gear properly and she also took incredible pictures of us. We both warmly recommend this trip!"
