Itinerary

The spectacular mountains in the Julian Alps are predominantly limestone, and their jagged form produce stunning vistas wherever you look. Glacial lakes, rushing rivers, tremendously deep gorges and alpine meadows with a real splash of wild flower colour are everywhere. But the hospitality of the local people – always welcoming – compliment this superb walking destination.

Walking is available from May to October in these mountains, and temperatures can be hot in the valleys in July and August though higher up, cool breezes are a help. We walk in May, June and September – ideal temperatures.

Ljubljana is the capital, and the airport is also near there. Transfers to our hotel are about 45 minutes, but through wonderful scenery – a good way to whet your appetite for the days ahead. Lake Bled is 12 kilometres away.

The Strolling and Exploring option – easier walking around lakes, in gorges, through alpine meadows and along river valleys combine spectacular views with manageable terrain. We visit many local villages- the heart of the agricultural life in Slovenia on our travels.

Where it is possible, we visit sites of real interest like churches and museums along our strolls.
