Arrive in Ljubljana

Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU) to your hotel in Ljubljana, then on foot in the old town

Fly into Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU), about 25 km north of the capital. A driver meets you in arrivals on the day you land (pick-up times subject to ops confirmation) and takes you about half an hour into the centre, to a hotel within about 10 minutes' walk of Prešeren Square.

Après-midi

In the late afternoon your See Sight Tours guide meets the group and leads an easy first walk of about an hour and a half to stretch travel legs: the Triple Bridge, Plečnik's riverside market colonnade, the Dragon Bridge and the old-town lanes under the castle hill. Most of the centre is closed to cars, so it is a gentle start on flat streets. Back at the hotel the guide runs through the week: which five days are the active ones, how long each walk and drive is, what to wear for rafting, and where the free afternoons fall.

Soir

Then we walk to a welcome dinner of Slovenian dishes, with a glass of wine from the country's own vineyards.

Imprimer l'itinéraire

Faune et météo : June has full waterfalls at Vintgar, Savica and Boka, high water on the Soča and late snow on the high peaks; July and August are warm and busiest at Bled; September is settled and quieter, with lower, gentler water for rafting. Afternoon thunderstorms are common in the mountains in summer, so the hikes start in the morning. If low cloud hides the view, we swap the Pokljuka and Vogel days. On the pastures you may see marmots near Vogel and grazing cattle at Zajamniki.

Avant de réserver

Ce voyage est-il pour vous?

Ce voyage vous convient si vous recherchez

  • Regular walkers who want 3 to 6 active hours a day in the mountains, with a hotel bed every night
  • First-time rafters who want an easy-to-moderate river with a professional company
  • Travellers who want the Julian Alps, Bled and Bohinj without changing hotel every night
  • Solo travellers who want a small group and a clear single price
  • People who would rather hike than spend the week in a vehicle

Ce voyage ne vous convient pas si vous recherchez

  • Non-swimmers or anyone uneasy in cold, moving water on rafting day (the walk instead is fine, but you would miss the river)
  • Travellers who want a sightseeing week; our Ljubljana, Lake Bled, Bohinj and Piran trip walks less and adds Postojna and the coast
  • Multi-day hut-to-hut trekkers: these are day hikes from hotels, not a Triglav summit
  • Step-free access: paths are rough, steep in places, with steps and suspension bridges

Questions

What does the price include?

Seven nights in central hotels, 7 breakfasts, 3 sit-down lunches and 2 dinners, both transfers, our own vehicle and driver throughout, your See Sight Tours guide for all 8 days, Soča rafting with all equipment, the Vogel cable car, Vintgar Gorge, the rowing boats on Lake Bled, the Savica waterfall and the Kobarid Museum.

How big is the group?

The small-group trip runs with 7 to 12 guests and is never merged with another group. That fits one vehicle, three rowing boats on Lake Bled and two rafts on the Soča, and the guide can walk with everyone on narrow mountain paths.

Who leads the trip?

A See Sight Tours guide travels with the group for all eight days and leads every walk, from the old-town walk in Ljubljana to the Soča Trail. On rafting day, licensed skippers from a local rafting company take the rafts, with our guide on the bank or on the river.

How fit do I need to be for this hiking trip?

You should be able to walk 3 to 4 hours on uneven mountain paths with up to about 400 m of climbing, five days in a week. It is graded moderate. Every active day has an easier choice, such as a shorter walk or the van, and a harder one, such as Viševnik at 2,050 m.

Do I need rafting experience, and do I have to be able to swim?

No experience is needed: the grade II to III stretch below Bovec suits first-timers, and the company gives a safety briefing and supplies wetsuits, helmets and life jackets. You do need to be able to swim and be comfortable in cold water. If you would rather not raft, walk to the Virje waterfall with the guide.

I am travelling solo. What does a single room cost?

A room of your own is from CAD 825 extra, shown before you book with no surprise later. Solo travellers are welcome on every departure and join the same hikes, boats, rafts and tables as everyone else.

When is the best time to go hiking in Slovenia?

June to September, when the Vršič Pass road is open, the mountain huts on Pokljuka are serving and the Soča is running for rafting. June has full waterfalls and high water, July and August are warmest and busiest at Bled, and September is settled and quieter.

How does booking work?

Choose a date and send a request to book. We confirm your place within 24 hours, and no payment is taken when you send the request. The small group starts from CAD 4,855 per person sharing, with taxes included.

Can we travel on our own dates?

Yes. The private style runs for your party only, on a date you choose, from CAD 8,740 per person. If you would rather travel independently on your own dates, ask us from the dates section and we will quote the same hotels, drivers and rafting company.

Do I need a visa for Slovenia?

Canadian and US citizens do not need a visa for short stays in Slovenia, which is in the Schengen area. The EU's Entry/Exit System records your fingerprints and photo on arrival, ETIAS, the EU travel authorisation, is not yet in operation and has no start date; we will tell you when it is required.

What if it rains in the Julian Alps?

Summer storms usually come in the afternoon, so hikes start in the morning. If a whole day is wet or the tops are in cloud, the guide swaps the Pokljuka and Vogel days or picks a lower walk, such as the Mostnica gorge at Bohinj. Rafting goes ahead in rain; you get wet anyway.

How is this different from your other Slovenia trips?

This is the active one: five days of hiking and rafting, three nights in Bovec on the Soča. Our Ljubljana, Lake Bled, Bohinj and Piran trip is easier, adding Postojna Cave and the coast, and our Slovenia and Croatia trip continues south to Plitvice, Split and Dubrovnik.
