Mount Triglav, Aljazev Dom hut, Vrata valley, Slovenia, Europe
At the end of the road in Vrata Valley, Slovenia, admire the close mountain grandeur of Triglav, Dolkova Spica, Skrlatica, and Stenar from Aljazev Dom hut [a dormitory refuge at 1015m elevation which serves meals, has 8 rooms with 23 beds, 115 communal beds; Tel: +386 (0)4 589 51 00 or +386 (0)4 589 10 30]. Walk easily 0.5 km to wide views at the "Monument to fallen Partisans," and higher trails lead to steeper, technical routes. Mount Triglav (9396 feet) is the highest peak in the Julian Alps, which were named Julius Caesar, who founded some nearby cities. The scenic Vrata valley extends from Mojstrana village through a mixed forest of beech, spruce and fir, along crystal clear Triglavska Bistrica creek, to the north face of Triglav, in Triglavski narodni park, Slovenia’s only national park. In 1991, Slovenia declared full sovereignty from Yugoslavia, in Europe. 80% of its 2 million people speak Slovene. In 2004, Slovenia joined NATO and the EU (European Union), and later adopted the Euro € currency. Slovenia is the richest Slavic nation per capita.
