Numerous places across Slovenia have been affected by storms and extensive floods in the recent period. Even though the situation is calming down in these areas, special conditions still apply. Storms, floods, and consequent landslides have left behind devastation. The Mountaineering Association of Slovenia, responsible for the network of mountain trails in Slovenia, is collecting data about the state of the trails and closing damaged sections. In this regard, we urge hikers not to venture into the most critical areas. Choose destinations for mountain trips in other parts of Slovenia and don't forget to follow the advice for safe mountain visits.
