Tour description
Slovenia is a hiking paradise. Pure and intact nature of Triglav National Park with magnificent Lake Bled, mountains Krn with it’s crystal clear mountain lake and a true paradise for nature lovers – beautiful Soča River Valley. All this in one program – in a week long group hiking holiday.
Yes, we are pretty sure this guided trekking tour will take your breath away.
We start in the most popular places in the Julian Alps, including the famous Bled and Bohinj Lakes. The trail leads us through rich spruce tree forests and picturesque mountain pastures on the high karst plateau Pokljuka. You’ll get the chance to admire incredible alpine scenery. The highlight of the trek is the Mt. Krn on 2,244 m (SloActive’s favorite peak in Julian Alps). Once on top you are rewarded with wonderful views (in good weather). You can see all the way to the Adriatic Sea, Matajur, Stol, Kanin, Triglav, Lake Krn and more.
Descending to Soča Valley is also special. The emerald Soča River Valley will inspire you with its natural features and scenery. The last two nights are in Bovec – Soča Valley’s capital. Bovec offers plenty for adventure-sports enthusiasts. Nestled below the Julian Alps, above the Soča River and surrounded with Triglav National Park is just a fairy-tale town.
Join us on our majestic group hiking tour in Slovenia. You’ll be accomodated in beautiful and welcoming (smaller) hotels, two nights you’ll sleep in mountain huts in pristine natural environment. You’ll have the chance to eat typical Slovenian food and you can taste some of our famous honey brandy or borovničevec (bilberry brandy).
