I first became interested in alpinism as a 16-year-old boy. My beginnings were far from smooth: fear, clumsiness, indecisiveness, excitement… All these feelings, along with a burning desire to overcome these obstacles, motivated me to challenge myself: can you do this? Do you have what it takes? Are you brave enough?
These questions and the actions arising from them eventually brought me atop the highest mountain on Earth, Mount Everest, along with other eight-thousand-meter peaks. I am a proud member of the Mountain Rescue Association of Slovenia, helping people in trouble in the mountains for over 30 years. Without a real love for the mountains, appreciation of true friendship, and a sense of responsibility towards other people, I doubt that I could have achieved all of this. This is the beautiful path that I’ve taken, and I want to share it with you.

To me mountains are magnificent, mysterious, enigmatic places. During my first experiences in this stunning landscape, I felt like I was floating between reality and dreams. A profound love was born, a love never fully realized, never fully satisfied. It's still with me, after all these years, still full of dreams yet to be dreamt, still drawing me into a world of towering rock faces and endless snow slopes, where days truly are majestic and beautiful. The mountains above Huaraz, Chamonix, Kathmandu...my home mountains in Slovenia...they still feel like home, they are still enticing, but they are never the same.

Book, Then wait me the sun
Danilo Tič
” I’ve ascented mountains myself since I was 12 years old. I started to climb when I was 15 years old. I have done more than 1000 ascents of all difficulties. After my first climb over the wall Triolet, crossing Mont Blanc at the end of the seventies of last century, the path led me over The Nothe Face Face of Triglav to the Andes,on the south face of Cho Oyu, adventure across South America (18 6000m peaks), first ascent on the south face of Aconcagua, NE face of Shivlinga, Magic Line on K2, Mount Everest, Manaslu, Shisha Pangme, El Cap, Marmolada to sport climbing on Kalymnos and Cuba. I want to ski powder when the conditions are great. I want to rock climb when the sun shines".
