Luxury Walking Holidays Slovenia

Today is all about settling in your luxurious hotel by the magical Lake Bled and exploring its surroundings on the doorstep of the Julian Alps. Depending on the time at your disposal, you can take a walk around the lake, try a bite of the famous local “kremšnita” creme cake, or visit the Bled Castle on a little hilltop overlooking the lakeside. Let the adventure begin!

Today, you’ll walk across the fields above Bled to Vintgar Gorge, where Radovna River cut a deep ravine, which visitors can now traverse along a series of boardwalks fixed along the side of the steep stone walls. Then, you’ll return to the lakeside, where you can take the traditional pletna boat ride to the lake’s island, wrapping up a magical day at Lake Bled. After a day filled with new experiences, you’ll return to Bled for another night at Adora Luxury Hotel or similar.

Bled Round Trail is a scenic circular hike around Lake Bled, taking you across several panoramic viewpoints surrounding Lake Bled, such as Mt. Ojstrica, Mala Osojnica, Bled Castle, etc. You’ll start from your doorstep, and you can take it at your own pace or even do only a section of the entire route. Then, you’ll return to the comforts of your hotel for your final night in Bled.

After being transferred to Kranjska Gora and checking into your hotel, you’ll kick off your walking holidays by following a pleasant gravel footpath along the Pišnica stream, passing Lake Jasna and eventually reaching the entrance to Krnica Valley beneath the mighty mountain faces of the central Julian Alps. You can hike to the hut in the valley or continue upwards, ascending past the Russian Chapel beneath Vršič Pass and returning to your charming boutique hotel on the shores of Lake Jasna.

A new day brings about a hike to one of the most scenic and easily accessible viewpoints in the Julian Alps – Slemenova Špica, which stands above Tamar Valley. A private transfer will take you to the top of Vršič Pass, from where you’ll follow an ascending path to a saddle, from where the path weaves and undulates below the Mojstrovka mountains before making the final climb to the panoramic summit. Don’t let the hike’s length fool you, as the terrain is uneven and unforgiving, thus requiring sure-footedness.

After your final night in the alpine embrace of Kranjska Gora, you’ll be transferred to Slovenia’s charming capital, where you’ll check into a 5-star hotel in the city centre. Our guide will pick you up and take you on a 2-hour exploration of Ljubljana’s Old Town, introducing you to the rich cultural heritage of the city and its most iconic landmarks. Beyond that, the time is yours to fill, but we would thoroughly recommend a luscious dinner at one of the many fine-dining restaurants to celebrate the end of your holiday.

For your last day in Slovenia, you can enjoy some leisure moments in sunny Ljubljana, walking the paved streets by the Ljubljanica River and having a cup of coffee at one of the many coffee shops on its banks. Grab some souvenirs before your private transfer picks you up to take you to the airport.
