Rž, Mountain summit in Julian Alps, Slovenia
Rž is a mountain summit in the Julian Alps standing at 2,538 meters above sea level. The peak sits within Triglav National Park and is accessed through several established climbing routes.
The mountain has long served as a geographical landmark drawing climbers along well-established paths through the Julian Alps. Its role as a key waypoint in the region has remained steady across generations of mountaineers.
The peak draws climbers from across the region who often include it in multi-summit expeditions through the Alps. Local mountaineers view this summit as a key waypoint on longer trekking routes through the mountain range.
The climb from lower elevations is steep and demands good physical fitness as well as careful footing on rocky terrain. Check weather conditions before departing and bring adequate water and food for the journey.
A mountain refuge sits just below the summit and provides hikers with a final rest stop before the push to the peak. This shelter has become an important waystation for visitors tackling the demanding final approach.
