LONG-DISTANCE HIKING TRAIL
The unique European area of the Alps is a geographical area that remarkably enters the heart of Europe, and our Julian Alps are the soul of the continent. The Julian Alps and Triglav National Park are under the auspices of the UNESCO Man and the Biosphere Programme because the Julian Alps are a treasure trove of natural and cultural riches.
On the edge of the Julian Alps, our ancestors forged iron and steel, survived many centuries while grazing animals on high pastures and persisted until today.
The Julian Alps community is now more interconnected than ever before and we are creating a new sustainable future of green tourism as the opportunity for preserving cultural and natural assets of this fragile environment, where the balance between biodiversity and lifestyle has been preserved by our ancestors for centuries.
RESPONSIBLE TOURISM IS NOW THE OPPORTUNITY OF OUR GENERATION.

JULIANA TRAIL
LONG-DISTANCE HIKING TRAIL AROUND THE JULIAN ALPS
The Juliana Trail with all its faces is a trail through diversity. The heart of the Julian Alps with high peaks and deep valleys is a panorama from the trail that surrounds our largest mountain range and Triglav National Park. It is a circular long-distance trail, 270 km long and comprises 16 stages. The latter are from 17 to 20 km long on average, and can take from 5 to 7 hours of walking per day. The daily stages are planned so that it is possible to spend the night at the place where the stage starts or ends, and where there are also options for refreshments or where hikers can also buy food and drinks. The trail starts and ends in Kranjska Gora or can be walked in any desired direction. It can be started anywhere and hikers can tailor it according to their wishes and abilities. One or two stages, or perhaps even all. In one go or over a couple of years. The Juliana Trail is designed to enable hikers to visit various sights that are close to the trail.
The Juliana Trail runs eastwards from Kranjska Gora along the Sava Dolinka River, rises three times to the sunny Karavanke and in Radovljica, the cultural capital of the Julian Alps, turns back towards the west and climbs via Bled to the embrace of the mountains, the Pokljuka and further to Bohinj. From Bohinj, it continues along the old tracks to pass over the hilly barrier which separates the north-eastern part of the Julian Alps from the milder south-western part, initially characterised by Baška grapa and along the route to Bovec by the emerald Soča River. In the last part, the Juliana Trail continues through Log pod Mangartom and across the Predel pass tries to enter the Italian side of the Julian Alps. Via Tarvisio and Rateče the trail ends its circle in Kranjska Gora.
This guidebook provides the basic data about all the 16 stages of the Juliana Trail. Hikers can use technical data about the stages, various websites and addresses to find information. Each stage provides a map and altitude profile; the map also indicates interesting sites that are further described in the text.
The Juliana Trail is marked with signposts and markers. Signposts, that are usually yellow, show the logo of the Juliana Trail, the number of the stage and the name of the place at the end or the beginning of the stage, some signposts even mention significant places along the trail. Signposts mark the trail in both directions. Besides signposts, the trail is also marked with the individually designed marker in the form of two rhombs that contain the letters J and A (Julian Alps).
The trail around the Julian Alps connects the existing trails and runs along local roads between villages, and partially along the marked hiking, tourist and other themed trails. Somewhere on the trail we should not let the red and white mountaineering markers, yellow hiking or red and black markers of the Path of Peace in the Soča Region bother us – we are on the Juliana Trail, other markers, guides and maps can only offer additional support.
The Juliana Trail runs along the UNESCO protected Julian Alps Biosphere Reserve, and around Triglav National Park, also entering it a few times. Due to the nature, exceptional landscape and cultural heritage as well as local people, we should not forget that we are only passing through this magnificent environment and that we should leave it behind us as we found it.
