Our adventure to Slovenia was absolutely spectacular! Every aspect of the trip was fabulous. Our guides, Masha and Hannah were so helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Our hikes were well planned, exhilarating and gorgeous! The pension where we stayed was spacious and clean. And the food was delicious.
Walking the Slovenian AlpsMagnificent country. The hike was well organised, a few spots the trail hikes signs were broken, but that's not a Touradar problem. The accommodation was all good, the meals, especially the breakfasts were great. We are coming back!
Slovenia Hiking: Alpe Adria Trail 5days- self guidedGreat tour with a beautiful nature and view in the Julian Alps. The tour is in a few parts steep and challenging for beginners, but the daily tours are not so so long, so you can take you time. The huts are partly very simple, with no shower, and simple toilettes, but it is part of the nature experience. Overall, a great experience.
