26. Short History Of Mountaineering In Slovenia History of mountaineering in Slovenia. The first visitors of our mountains were the local guys hunters, shepherds, oreseekers, herb http://home.hetnet.nl/~rjs25/hoofdmap/mountaineering.htm

History of mountaineering in Slovenia The first Slovenian alpinist was Valentin Stanic (1774-1847) who counted numerous first ascents to Austrian mountains. In 1800, he performed measurements on Grossglockner (3797m), in 1801 he was on Hocheck, in 1808 as the fourth person to climb Triglav. He was among the first mountain climbers that `walked' around without a guide. At the end of the 19th century, the joint German-Austrian Mountaineering Society (DÖAV, Deutsch-Österreichischer Alpenverein, merged in 1874) had five sections (outlets): in Kranj, Maribor, Celje, Villach and Trieste. Foreign mountain climbers marked German paths and built German mountain huts on our territory, which the Slovenian hikers were not allowed to use. They were very few Slovenian hikers at that time: Franc Kladnik (1925-1908) was one of them, a never-tired solo walker. But the first initiative to establish a Slovenian mountaineering organisation came already in 1872 from Ivan Zan from Srednja vas in Bohinj. The society of `The Friends of Triglav' had one primary goal: to take care of the `Triglav Temple', i.e. a bivouac on Prodi, the first little mountain hut in the immediate vicinity of Triglav. But the foreign authorities prevented this Society to be formed. Two great fans of our mountains were dr. Johannes Frischauf

In 1922, a meeting of an important political and sporting movement of Yugoslavia and some other European Countries, called "Sokoli" (Falcons), took place in Ljubljana. Scouting was established in Slovenia in 1922. It was officially dissolved on June 10th, 1941 because of World War II. The World Organization of the Scout Movement welcomed Slovenia into its membership in September 1994. Zveza Tabornikov Slovenije (ZTS) has been recognized as the national member organization of Slovenia. The enthusiastic young girls and boys of the Slovenian contingent at the European Jamboree impressed everyone with the quality of their Scouting skills. This reflects very well on the training being provided to all members of the Movement in Slovenia. Zveza Tabornikov Slovenije is a recognized member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement since September 1994. As the recognized national Scout organization in Slovenia ZTS guarantees the rights of WOSM membership which this bestows upon an individual to the members of another Slovenian Scout organization, Zdruzenje Slovenskih Katoliskih Skavtinj in Skavtov (ZSKSS), founded in 1990). This enables individual members of ZSKSS to participate in international Scout events and meetings.

History of Go in Slovenia The history of go in Slovenia is connected with the history of go on the territory of the former Yugoslavia. In the following article we shall deal with events concerning go in Slovenia. The history of go in Slovenia can be found also in Ranka Yearbook 10, so in the following article we shall enlarge with the events occurring in the last decade. First we would like to mention the go club in Pula (now a part of Croatia, at that time the main Austro-Hungarian naval base), where go was played from the year 1900 to the end of the First World War. In that club, in the year 1914, the young Slovenian naval officer Ervin Fink learned how to play go. Much later, in 1960, he wrote a series of articles about go in a Slovenian weekly newspaper. In the year 1961 he published the first go book in the Slovenian language - Go igra (The Game of Go). Slovenian players participated in the 1st and 2nd International Go Tournament (1963 and 1964) which were held in Tokyo. In 1969 Go zveza Slovenije (Slovenian Go Association) organised the 13th European Championship in Ljubljana. Next year, Slovenian go players visited USA, participating in an international tournament in New York, and playing matches with teams of go clubs in New York, Philadelphia, Washington and Boston.

Slovenia has a population of 2 million and its capital city is Ljubljana. The official language is Slovene, one of the South Slavonic languages. In Slovenia, the sun shines approximately 2000 hours per year. And yes, there is plenty of snow in winter. As a small, beautiful and picturesque country, Slovenia makes a great tourist destination. Mountains, lakes, waterfalls, forests, caves, hills, plains, rivers and the sea - you name it, you can find it all within a modest 20.273 km2 (half the size of Switzerland), as well as many natural and landscape parks. You can ski in the morning and surrender yourself to the luxury of the Adriatic Sea in the afternoon. Slovenia has 46.6 km of sea coast - an inch per inhabitant. The highest mountain is called Triglav - the name meaning "three-heads" - and it is 2864m high. The mountain is a true national symbol, featured on the national coat of arms and the flag Slovenia is also known for its great wines and delicious traditional food.
