Lake Bohinj Mountain Sports Lying in the heart of Slovenia’s Julian Alps, Lake Bohinj is the perfect base for mountain adventures. Over three days you can try your hand at a range of activities and challenges both on and around the lake. There’s orienteering, canoeing, hiking and – for those with adrenalin to spare – a free day to take to the many mountain trails. You could also try optional rock climbing and canyoning. Canoeing Down the Kolpa Canyon Leaving Lake Bohinj you’ll drive out of the mountains, via Lake Bled and Ljublijana, to reach the banks of the Kolpa River. Here you begin a two night river expedition along the Kolpa Canyon – canoeing in this beautiful area of Southern Slovenia is an experience not to be missed! There’s also time to swim in the warm turquoise waters, try archery or tackle a high-ropes course before you leave. Responsible Travel Staying in small family-run hotels, eating in local restaurants and using a local Slovenian agent, driver and Group Leader is the best way of ensuring that your money reaches as many people as possible. The agent in Slovenia has a strong policy of responsible tourism, committed to protecting the great outdoors. Whilst staying on Lake Bohinj you’ll visit a local shepherd, gaining an insight into traditional Slovenian mountain life. |
