Want to be dazzled by green landscapes and unspoiled nature? Say no more, we have the perfect tour for you! Despite its size, Slovenia will definitely surprise you with a huge variety of beautiful landscapes, from mountains to crystal clear lakes. If this country was a colour, it would definitely be green, not just for its forests and parks, but also for how much Slovenians care about and love the environment. Here’s what you can expect from this six day tour: nature, nature and more nature… with a pinch of adventure! The Julian Alps will be our backdrop, as well as the pretty Bohinj Lake and Lake Bled. Oh, and let’s not forget the characteristic villages and the local cuisine. A unique tour for an all-round experience of Slovenia!

Itinerary
Welcome to Slovenia
Check in
Roundtrip flights are not included in the package, so you can choose from where and when you want to fly. Check in to your hotel in Ljubljana and it’s time to start our tour right… with food of course! Tonight is your welcome dinner. On the menu, kranjska klobasa with Žganci (traditional sausage with polenta), or maybe baked trout. Whatever the choice, this will be the perfect opportunity to break the ice and get to know your fellow WeRoaders!
Hiking and nature
The village of Velika Planina and Logarska Valley
After a hearty breakfast, it’s time to pick up the rental cars and head out into nature. Our first stop is Velika Planina, one of Europe's few surviving high mountain herdsmen's villages where traditional Alpine herdsman's culture is still alive. We could hop on the cable cars to reach the top of the mountain and enjoy a beautiful hike on the green pastures, surrounded by cows! We’ll then continue towards the Logar Valley, where you can choose how to spend the rest of your day. Relaxing in the sun? Hiking to Rinka Waterfall? A bike ride in the mountains? The choice is yours, but you’ll definitely come home completely refreshed!

Between the two lakes
Lake Bohinj and Lake Bled
Good morning WeRoaders! Our day starts with a visit to Lake Bohinj, the largest permanent lake in Slovenia. We can hike a short distance to reach Savica Waterfall, or maybe head to Vintgar Gorge, a canyon carved by the Radovna River. Then it's time for a picnic surrounded by this beautiful landscape to refuel for the rest of the day!
After lunch we’ll head to the more famous Lake Bled. The lake is encircled by the Julian Alps, which are reflected in the clear waters. It will honestly make you feel like you are standing in the middle of a postcard! We can take a hike around the lake, or maybe a boat ride to the little island right in the middle of the lake, to visit the beautiful castle.

More nature… and a bit of adventure!
Bovec and the Soča River
Let’s have a light breakfast today because we are about to drive up a winding mountain road through Vršič Pass, and finally reach Bovec. If we don't feel like taking this winding, panoramic route, we can always opt for an easier alternative road. Bovec is a lively town surrounded by the beautiful Julian Alps. The Soča River runs through the valley and with its vibrant emerald green colour, it gives the whole landscape a picture perfect look!
Ready for some rafting?
The Soča River will be the backdrop for our next adventure. Have you ever been rafting? It’s the best way to descend the river so get ready for a day full of fun and adrenaline!

The Wonderful Underground World of the Postojna Cave
The Wonderful Underground World of the Postojna Cave
On our final day in Slovenia, we journey from towering peaks to the depths of the Earth!

After uncovering all its secrets, we hop back in the car and head to Ljubljana, where we’ll return our rental cars and soak up the city’s vibrant atmosphere one last time. As the evening unfolds, we’ll wander through the lively pedestrian streets and indulge in a farewell feast of traditional dishes—the perfect way to toast our unforgettable trip!
