Piran Wall
The Piran city wall is one of the best spots for fantastic views and beautiful photos of Piran, unless you have a drone, of course. Although we have visited Piran countless times, it wasn’t until early April this year that we finally explored the wall. It was a wonderful spring day during Easter, with plenty of visitors, especially Slovenians and Italians. Given Piran’s proximity to Italy, the town attracts many day visitors.

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.

Piran
Ending the day in Piran after a full day along the Slovenian Adriatic coast is one of our favorite traditions. We do it almost every year when we are in Slovenia. There is much to love about Piran—the architecture, the narrow alleys, and, above all, enjoying a good dinner along the Prešeren Embankment while watching the sun set over the sea. Piran is unique in Slovenia.

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.

Lake Jasna
Lake Jasna is a small but very scenic lake located just above the town of Kranjska Gora in the Julian Alps. You pass the lake on the way up to the Vršič Pass. The surrounding high mountains provide a beautiful backdrop. We often stop by Lake Jasna—sometimes on the way to another destination, sometimes for a coffee, and occasionally for a short swim.

Vintgar Gorge
We visited Vintgar Gorge in the summer of 2025. I was a bit skeptical at first, as it can feel like a tourist trap when you read about it or see the place. Fortunately, Irina convinced me to go. Although there is an entrance fee, it’s definitely worth it to see the gorge, the Radovna River flowing through it, and its waterfall. Being so close to Bled, the area attracts many tourists in the summer, but fortunately, everything is well organized.
