Slovenian Alpine Museum
Slovenski planinski muzej
The national mountaineering museum in Mojstrana, the gateway town to the Vrata Valley and Triglav. Interactive exhibits trace the geography of the Julian Alps and the history of Slovene mountaineering.
The Slovenian Alpine Museum opened in 2016 in Mojstrana, the gateway town to the Vrata Valley and Triglav. Its exhibits center on Triglav and cover high-mountain geology, flora and fauna, life on alpine pastures, and the history of mountaineering and rock climbing in Slovenia. Highlights include a simulated climbing wall and multimedia displays, making it a good choice on a rainy day or with children. Admission is about 8 euros, and the museum is closed on Mondays in winter. It lies about 30 km from Bled and can be visited together with the Peričnik Falls.
