Slovenia knocked me off my feet \u2014 literally. When Luk\u00e1\u0161 and I first stopped by the So\u010da River and I looked down from the bridge, my knees buckled so hard I had to grab the railing. That colour of water simply shouldn’t exist. You couldn’t dream up that shade of turquoise even in Photoshop, yet there it was, calmly flowing through Alpine valleys as if it were the most normal thing in the world. \ud83d\ude05<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Slovenia is the kind of country where a single day can take you through Alpine scenery with snow-capped peaks, an emerald river buzzing with kayakers, a medieval town with a castle perched on a cliff \u2014 and by evening you’re eating fresh seafood on the Adriatic coast. All of this in a country smaller than Wales. Seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve put together a complete 7-day Slovenia road trip itinerary<\/strong> \u2014 from Ljubljana through legendary Bled and Bohinj, the wild So\u010da Valley and the Vr\u0161i\u010d Pass, all the way to Postojna Cave and the coastal gem of Piran. You’ll find specific tips on where to go, where to eat, where to stay and how much it’ll cost. Let’s dive in. \u263a\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n
