The way is a story – the story is a path. The Slovenian Alpine Museum is not an ordinary museum, as it offers an experience of the exhibition like a personal ascent to a mountain. Adventure-seekers can test themselves in the Escape to the Bivouac. You can also see and hear what the legendary “Dvojka” looked like from the inside and how mountaineers experienced it – even without the adventure.

We offer you a virtual walk to our highest mountain.
