Špik, Mountain summit in Julian Alps, Slovenia

The Špik peak rises to 2,472 meters above sea level, presenting a distinct pyramidal shape visible from numerous locations within the Julian Alps range.

The northern face of Špik mountain became a site of remembrance after a tragic mountaineering accident claimed five young climbers' lives in May 1952.

The mountain represents a significant landmark in Slovenian mountaineering tradition, attracting generations of climbers to test their skills on its routes.

Climbers can access two main routes from Krnica valley, with the Krnica mountain hut at 1,113 meters serving as the primary base for expeditions.

The mountain's name derives from its sharp, pointed formation, requiring climbers to navigate an elevation gain of 1,304 meters from the base hut.
