Bohinj lake (Slovenia), Sept. 30- Oct. 3
The Bohinj lake area is simply gorgeous, even if our photography skills fail to capture this fact. Soaring mountains, rushing waterfalls, picturesque villages, and plenty of tasty sausages (if you're into that sort of thing) make this relatively undeveloped stretch of the Julian Alps a refreshing escape. We took the opportunity to get sporty and went hiking, biking, and canoeing through the countryside (we passed on the paragliding, rock-climbing, and ˝adrenaline park˝ ropes course). We spent a great deal of time lounging in our hotel, which offered rooms looking onto the mountains and an excellent heated pool and sauna. Finally, the quaint beer garden next door proved a wonderful way to pass the sunset hours.
Bohinj is a great alternative to the more crowded alp getaways of Western europe, and it's just as beautiful. We would definitely come back.
