Bled Vintgar Gorge

Vintgar Gorge is located near Bled and it is one of the most beautiful places in Slovenia. It is about 2 kilometers long gorge where you walk on galleries above the Radovna brook so trail is really attractive. At the end of the gorge is waterfall Sum. If you visit Bled you have to visit also Vintgar Gorge cause it is not so far away and it is worth of the visit. But you should know that Vingar Gorge is closed during winter time cause it can be danger because of stones falling down. So usually it opens in April but better to check before.

The Kolpa River

The Kolpa River is one of the most beautiful rivers in Slovenia. It lies mostly on the border between Slovenia and Croation in the south-east part of Slovenia. There you can find many activities to do, especially in the summer time. Most popular is rafting or kayaking. The river is quite calm so it is suitable for almost anyone even kids. From time to time you will come to some rapids but nothing very special. At some dams you should take a boat down by your hands. Other activities are swimming, camping, cycling, hiking, etc. There are many camping places that can be quite occupied in the high season cause some people prefer to go to Kolpa River than at seaside.

Logar Valley

Logar Valley is one of the most wonderful valley in Slovenia. It lies inside Kamnik-Savinja Alps so when you walk around the valley you have a beautiful view on the mountains around. There is walking trail from the start to the end of the valley but you can also use the car if you prefer. I suggest you to hike if you have time cause you will get most of the valley. On the way through the valley you can see Chapel of Christ the King, source of Crna, Charcoal-burner's Hut, Palenk Waterfal, Plesnik's Elm and the best of all Rink Fall at the end of Valley. If you still have energy then climb to Okreselj Mountain Hut. On the way there you will see source of River Savinja and enjoy in beautiful view on the mountains and Logar Valley. In the neighbourhood of Logar Valley you can see other interesting places like Robanov kot Valley, Solcava, Podolseva with Potocka zijalka Cave, Olseva, etc.

Kranjska Gora

Kranjska Gora is one of the most popular Alpine resort in Slovenia. It is located in the north-east side of Slovenia near Italia and Austria border. There are many ski slopes for different skills and tracks for cross-country skiing. Latter is especially good in Ratece or Planica-Tamar Valley. In summer season there are very good possibilites for hiking, climbing, cycling, etc. Near Kranjska Gora is the highest pass in Slovenia, Vrsic that leads you to Trenta Valley with emerald river Soca. On the way to Vrsic you can stop at Lake Jasna. From there is avery scenic view of Julian Alps. Not so far from Kranjska Gora is Planica-Tamar Valley as it was previously already mentioned. In Planica are organized ski jumps in winter. In summer this valley is perfect for hiking.

Pericnik Waterfall

Pericnik Waterfall is one of the most famous waterfalls in Slovenia. It lies in the Triglav National Park in Vrata Valley where you have to turn in town Mojstrana. A few kilometers from Mojstrana is small parking area where you can leave the car and walk about 5-10 minutes to the Lower Pericnik Fall. A little further is also Upper Pericnik Fall. Both are nice and interesting but bigger is Lower Pericnik Fall that can be seen also from the road at parking area. It is possible also to walk below the waterfall.

Iski vintgar

Iski vintgar is a beautiful place in Slovenia, not so far from Ljubljana. You can leave the car on the quite big parking area near lodge house Iski vintgar. If you like just short walk and do some refreshment in the cool water in hot summer days then I suggest you to stay on the left bank of river Iska and continue on the way to the end of the path. There you will see nice beach where is possible to swim. If you like more hiking then you have to cross the footbridge and continue on the path to the confluence of river Iska and Zaka. On the way there you will see Rocky solitary -Votli kamen (Hollow Stone). At the confluence you can also possibility to swim a little near another Rocky solitary named Skalni moz (Rocky man).

Skocjan Caves

Skocjan Caves are problably the most beautiful caves in Slovenia beside Postojna Cave. Postojna Cave is interesting because of train ride and it is also more touristic. Skocjan Caves on the other side has very interesting stalactites and great walk above canyon of river Reka. It takes more than one hour to get through the cave. Also outside part of the cave is very interesting where you come in Velika doline. There is view on waterfall. A little further you can also see beautiful troughs of river Reka that are located between Velika and Mala dolina.

Trenta

Trenta Valley with river Soca is on the western side of Triglav National Park in Slovenia. You can come there from Vrsic pass or from Bovec direction. On the way through the Trenta Valley you can see a lot of beautiful natural and cultural sights starting with Soca spring, monument Kugy, big and small Soca troughs, views of the mountains all the way, military cemeteries from the 1st World War, museum and much more.

Mangart

Road to the Mangart Saddle is one of the most interesting Alpine roads in Slovenia. All the way you have nice views of Julian Alps. You must be carefull cause sheep can cross the road. During the drive you can stop beside the road and enjoy in views. When you come to the Mangart Saddle (more than 2000 m above sea level) you can park somewhere near road and continue to walk to Mangart summit. Choose Italian way if you are not so much experienced mountaineer. But anyway it takes about 2 hours to come to summit, so choose good shoes and don't go in bad weather.
