Take on the Slovenia Multi Activity Adventure, with the soaring peaks of the Julian Alps to the sparkling blue-green lake of Bohinj flanked by the lush green forest and picturesque valleys. This is the ultimate setting for an incredible multi activity adventure.

Immerse yourself in the spectacular pristine mountains and snowcapped peaks to ascend Mt Triglav, Slovenia’s highest peak at 2864m. The climb to the summit is outstanding and excitingly airy along a breath-taking trail which offers some brilliant scrambling and sections of via ferrata. You will be rewarded with incredible panoramic views from the summit across the Julian Alps and as far as neighbouring Austria, Italy and Croatia. Summitting  Triglav is the Holy Grail that all Slovenians aim to complete at least once in their life as a right of passage.

It’s then time to swap your boots for a bike and embark on an exciting adventure along scenic cycling trails. Your cycling route runs along the banks of the Sava Bohinjka River in the Lower Bohinj Valley and through the alpine villages of the Upper Bohinj Valley. With a mixture of tarmac and trails, your local guide will show you some hidden gems that the route passes.

To finish it’s on to the shores of the crystal-clear emerald glacial Lake Bohinj to jump onboard your kayak and  paddle down the Sava Bohinjka river. The scenery is breath-taking as you travel down the river riding over small sections of fun rapids.

With more than half of its total surface still covered in forest, Slovenia does more than simply claim it’s ‘green’. It really is one of the greenest countries on earth and we can’t wait to welcome you to this earthly paradise.
