Julian Alps & Lake Bled

Julian Alps & Lake Bled

Introduction

Trip of a LifetimeArchitectureFlora and FaunaCastlesPhotography

Slovenia's historic capital city, Ljubljana, is the starting point for this eight-day journey through one of Europeâs most unspoilt and diverse landscapes.

Taking in the Julian Alps and the vast underground caves of Postojna, we meander through flower-filled meadows and along the blue-green shores of Lake Bled. We discover cheese-making, bee-keeping and traditional lace, enjoy spectacular waterfalls and gorges, explore ancient castles and breathe Sloveniaâs pristine air.

A highlight of this Walk is a boat-trip across Lake Bohinj, in the protected waters of Triglav National Park, where we discover the many myths and legends that surround the mystical Bohinj valley.
