Itinerary

Day 1: ARRIVAL IN KRANJSKA GORA

Kranjska Gora is a picturesque alpine town in Slovenia, known for its stunning natural beauty and year-round outdoor activities. Nestled in the Julian Alps, it is a popular holiday destination for skiing in the winter and hiking, cycling, and exploring nature during the warmer months. The town is also close to several breathtaking landmarks, including Lake Jasna and the Vršič Pass, offering visitors a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation in a charming mountain setting.

Day 2: HIKING KRANJSKA GORA - JASNA LAKE - KRNICA VALLEY - KRANJSKA GORA (5 hrs, ↔ 17 km, ↑↓ 460 m)

As you embark on your warm-up stroll, you'll journey past the first of the many stunning lakes you'll explore during this excursion: the enchanting Lake Jasna. Framed by the rugged peaks of the Julian Alps, Lake Jasna provides an idyllic setting for relaxation. Yet, save your leisure for the return trip, as there's more beauty to behold ahead. As you venture further through the scenic Jasna Valley, you'll be met by the majestic mountain amphitheater formed by the Prisank and Razor Mountains. Your journey will conclude with a visit to the poignant "Russian Chapel," a tribute to Russian prisoners of war who perished while constructing the military road over Vršič Pass during World War I.

Day 3: CYCLING KRANJSKA GORA – BLED (↔ 40 km, ↑ 290 m, ↓ 620 m)

Today's adventure leads you alongside rivers as they carve their paths through verdant valleys, embraced by majestic peaks. Your journey begins in the village of Mojstrana, where you'll venture into the Krma and Radovna valleys. As you approach the exit, don't miss the chance for a short detour to marvel at the roaring rapids of Vintgar Gorge. Soon after, you'll step into the enchanting realm of Lake Bled, a place that feels straight out of a fairy tale.

Day 4: CYCLING BLED - KROPA - RADOVLJICA - BLED (↔ 45 km, ↑ ↓ 640 m)

As sunlight floods over Lake Bled, you'll cycle at the foot of the Jelovica High Plateau, offering a stunning view into Triglav National Park. Stop at Kropa, Slovenia's foremost blacksmith town, and visit the iron forging museum, where you can even learn to make your own nail. Continue to the beautifully preserved old town of Radovljica, home to an interesting beekeeping museum and a delightful ice cream shop. On your way back to Bled, pass by the Sobec camping site, where you can relax and cool your feet in the fresh water of the little pond.

Day 5: RAFTING LAKE BLED (↔ 8 km, grade 2-3)

A three-hour ad venture rafting trip on the Sava Dolinka river (grade 2-3). This trip is suitable for all, no extra experience or equipment needed. With a free afternoon in Bled you'll have time to explore its lake, row yourself over to the island church, and hike up to the clifftop castle for a splendid view across the lake and valley, then end the day by treating yourself to Slovenia and Bled's famous cream cake.
