Just above Bled rises massive Pokljuka Plateau that offers an amazing experience regardless of the season and is the gateway to many mountain paths. There are numerous old bear migration routes leading through the forests and the surface of the plateau is covered with small valleys that open into summer pastures, where several hundred head of cattle graze each summer.
Bohinj and surrounding area are known as one of the most interesting Slovenian regions as far as ethnology and natural protected area is concerned. We’’ll pass the village of Studor marked by a clustered group of Toplar hayracks, followed by short stop at lake Bohinj, nested in the heart of the Julian Alps, this jewel is a precious natural resource and at the same time offers endless opportunities for outdoor activities. After a nice half day experience we will return back to Bled and Ljubljana. Drop off will be at same location as pick up.
