Zgornje Jezersko
Zgornje (Upper) Jezersko is a charming village on the northern side of the Kamnik–Savinja Alps. Located in a high alpine valley, it lies between the Karawanke mountains to the north and the Kamnik–Savinja Alps to the south. This lesser-known alpine paradise, much like the Logar Valley and Robanov Kot on the eastern side of the range, offers a genuine and authentic mountain environment. Here, you can immerse yourself in unspoiled nature and enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, surrounded by beautiful scenery and peaceful landscapes.

Mangart Saddle
The road to Mangart Saddle is the highest in Slovenia, reaching a peak altitude of 2,072 meters. It was built in 1938 by the Italian army under Mussolini, as this part of Slovenia belonged to Italy at the time. The ascent is narrow, with many hairpin bends, and the road is quite exposed, making it unsuitable for the faint-hearted. However, once you reach the top, you are rewarded with fantastic natural scenery and breathtaking panoramic views.

Radovljica
Radovljica is our hometown in Slovenia. When we visit, we stay in our apartment there. The town is located in the Gorenjska region (Upper Carniola) and is rich in history, reflecting the different eras of the region. The town centre dates back to the Middle Ages. Today, Radovljica is known for its honey, beekeeping traditions, and chocolate, and it hosts an annual chocolate festival. Not far down in the valley below, the Sava Bohinjka and Sava Dolinka rivers merge to form the Sava River.

The hike up to Talež is a quick and easy route that can be completed in 30–45 minutes, making it perfect for a short workout after work. At the top, you’ll find a larger hunting lodge with fantastic views of Bled, Radovljica, and the surrounding valley. We often hike up to Talež to get some exercise and enjoy the scenery.

Trenta Valley
The Trenta Valley is one of the most beautiful and untouched valleys in the Julian Alps. It is also the source of the Soča River (known as the Isonzo in Italian), widely regarded as one of the most beautifgul rivers in Europe — and we wholeheartedly agree. The valley offers endless opportunities for nature and adventure enthusiasts: rafting, ziplining, hiking, cycling, and more. For us, one of the greatest joys is simply driving through the valley, soaking in its atmosphere and breathtaking beauty.

Lake Bohinj
Lake Bohinj is located about 25 km southwest of Lake Bled. To get there, you drive from Bled through a long alpine valley, and it feels like entering a different world with a slower pace. Deeper into the alpine landscape, you’ll find significantly fewer tourists, more untouched nature, and a wilder, more authentic side of Slovenia.
