With Klemn we climbed Via Italiano on Mangart early this morning - first to Mangart saddle, then down to bivouac Nogara, back up Via Italiana and then via Slovenian to the summit. During climbing in the second part of the ferrata, a short rain annoyed us a bit, but it soon took pity on us. All protections, except one bolt in the last part where we climb steps, are impeccable. For those planning this ascent - the entrance to the ferrata is about 100m ABOVE bivouac Nogara. You have cairns from there, but it's easier if, on descent from saddle, you keep to the edge of scree and enter beyond it when you spot hole in wall on left through which cable runs. Day was nice, though not overly sunny. Pilgrim path via Italian route bustled upwards on our descent. Whole tour done in less than five hours. Recommend to all who don't want to hike from Belopeške lakes to bivouac and back, though you'll miss some beautiful views along path and of course lakes. Won't elaborate on ferrata itself this time, I REALLY liked it. Nice mountaineering greeting to the whole team, Jure

When I was on Jalovec (around ten), Mangart was nicely visible. On top looked quite crowded.

Hello, I have already visited Mangart once via the Italian route, after this year's acquisition (self-belay kit) I plan an ascent via the Slovenian route. I don't have much experience with very demanding paths yet (many years ago e.g. on Triglav from Kredarica); recently I've been hiking mainly to mountains on paths up to (including) difficult grade. I've read the previous comments but I'd ask if someone can comment on this path more in detail, the most demanding/exposed/dangerous sections, path equipment for belaying on these parts etc. If someone has any additional pics, also welcome  Thanks everyone in advance and safe steps!

Matz, just boldly head out on the path, it's nicely routed and well secured where needed.

Dear Matz, if you got to Mangart via Italian direction you'll manage Slovenian too. They differ in that Slo. direction has path more vertically, where steel cables help. Only watch small stones and sand on some sections. Last time up Thursday alone and Saturday with daughters. Time from saddle to top two hours and same descent Italian.

MANGRT I see you already have big girls, so please tell me what type of climbing harness they use. Is it women's or kids' model? Asking because I need to buy one too for daughter (12 years, 140 cm).

One question; if you climb up the Italian via ferrata, do you then directly reach the Italian path to the top of Mangart, or do you continue and then the Italian and Slovenian paths split towards the top?

@bos Was it maybe pouring around 12h on Mangart? I returned already at 11h and an hour later when I was driving through Predil it started pouring heavily. Before that while descending I saw a huge crowd of hikers who were just starting to climb Mangart.

If you head into the mountains early enough you usually avoid weather troubles. We had a wonderful sunny day. Up the Slovenian down the Italian.

I don't know why but I can't upload more pics. Also interested in those multicolored flags like I noticed on Brana.

Well, today even later hour wasn't problematic weather-wise... After vacationing some time at 0 m a.s.l. , had to re-acclimatize a bit to high mountains , so for end of holidays we did nice family high-alpine 'walk' from saddle up Slovenian to top and down Italian...already soon at path start pleasant surprise - meeting forum mate, first time met at Vrh nad Peski (thanks for speaking to me , I knew you but didn't exactly know where to 'place' you ...third time lucky, hope we meet again soon ). Quite some visits but far from big crowds, so pleasant! Views imperial, even Grossglockner and 'queen' of High Tauern on the palm...rocks really smooth, smoother year by year, so I believe it's not nice when wet....Since tour shorter, afternoon went for some 'tourism', usually no time or energy for it...stopped first at hut so girls could sweeten themselves with excellent 'štrudel', then at Mangartska planina for tasting real sheep cheese, then at Predel to finally find out when barracks remains date from and what monument with famous lion is for, finally stop at Rabeljsko jezero where Jerebica proudly mirrored, hope to climb it this autumn too... ...
