Your photo of Lake Bohinj really does make it look magnificent, dark and refreshing. And you certainly make the Kobarid Museum sound fascinating, since it is an anti-war museum telling individual stories and including that Hemingway quotation from “A Farewell to Arms”.

I think we will just kidnap you and take you with us!

Excellent overview of your wonderful country. Dream to revisit it after quick crossing from Hungary to Italy in far 1996 ...

Hi Krista and thanks for the ratings (my first in 6 weeks). We really enjoyed staying near Omis and made it to Bled and Lake Bohinj later on. I may even write some tips on this soon. Bled looks great in the snow.

What a lovely page, particularly the Local Customs. Now I want to go to Slovenia more than ever. It was so frustrating riding through on the bus en-route to Trieste and not being able to get off. Next time :))

Hello Krista! I see that there's so much I missed when I visited Slovenia. I must come back soon. A great page with lots of info and beautiful pictures.

Hi - Surely you mean Topli val (warm wave) at the Hvala hotel in Kobarid?
