Bohinj

The largest natural lake in Slovenia is Lake Bohinj. Lake Bohinj is nested in the heart of the Julian Alps. This lake offers endless opportunities for outdoor activities.

Climb up to the castle and enjoy the finest view of Lake Bled and its Island.
Ljubljana

Ljubljana is the capital of Slovenia and it’s also the largest city of Slovenia.

Ljubljana is a certainly worth a visit. The historic architecture, green spaces and riverbanks lined with cafes, shops and restaurants are really great.

Triglav National Park

Triglav is Slovenia’s pride! It’s undoubtedly the most visited and well-known mountain of Slovenia.

If you’re into climbing and mountaineering the Prisojnik (also called Prisank) via ferrata is one of the greatest in Triglav National Park. This mountain is far from being the highest but its broadness and massiveness have a very impressive effect.

With a hugh amount of trails, Triglav National Park is ideal for hiking and is a must do when you’re in the Julian Alps of Slovenia. The nature is breathtakingly beautiful!
