Trenta

Triglav National Park


The elongated mountain village of Trenta (elevation 620m) is the main settlement along the road over the Vršič Pass. The lower section, Spodnja Trenta (Lower Trenta), is home to the Triglav National Park Information Centre. In the same building you’ll find the Trenta Museum, which focuses on the park's geology and natural history.
