Triglav Lakes – Double Lake

1-Day Tour, Pick-up in Bohinj or Bled

Nestled within the breathtaking Triglav National Park, the Triglav Double Lake hike takes you along a sun-drenched trail through enchanting rolling hills and alpine pastures, eventually leading to a landscape so pristine and idyllic it could easily be lifted from a fairytale.

It’s a beautiful loop hike that also offers a glimpse of the high mountains. Along the way, we visit a few traditional alpine pastures with wooden structures and have three options to stop for refreshments. In summer, the stunning green waters of the Triglav Double Lake are framed by meadows bursting with vibrant wildflowers.

This hike is ideal for those who wish to immerse themselves in the untouched beauty of the Slovenian Alps and experience the entrance to the Triglav Lakes Valley—what many consider the most beautiful alpine valley in Slovenia.

Perfect for families with children, the hike can also be extended into a two-day adventure, allowing for a more relaxed pace and deeper exploration of this stunning alpine paradise.

To experience the entire Triglav Lakes Valley, we strongly recommend our 3-day 7 Triglav Lakes Trek.

Stats: 800 m of ascent and descent; 17.5 km.

Itinerary

Starting above Lake Bohinj from the Blato Plateau, we first follow the signs for the picturesque plateau Planina pri Jezeru (Plateau by the Lake). We then turn our route towards the second plateau called Dedno Polje, and yet another plateau afterwards called Planina Ovčarija (Sheep Plateau). Finally, as we approach the towering mountains above a long Alpine valley, we know we just crossed over to the high-lying Valley of the Triglav Lakes and soon after we reach the Double Lake Hut. Please note that it's about 4 hours to the Double Lake Hut for adults, which should make a 5-6 hour walk up for young families. Highly recommended to extend the trek over two days, spend the night in the Double Lake Hut and return to the valley the next day.

"I had an incredible day of hiking through the stunning Triglav National Park with our guide Neja. Starting low in the valley we quickly ascended through a stunning forest marked with waterfalls overflowing with spring snow melt. That took us up to the picturesque Black Lake before we carried on above the snow line to reach the Double Lake, a deep emerald colour standing out against the surrounding snow. In the afternoon we looped around the alpine trails, stopping for a late lunch at the Komna Hut before heading back down the valley to our starting point. Neja was a great tour guide, I certainly wouldn't' have wanted to do this hike without someone with her local knowledge given how quickly the weather can change on the mountain."
