THE LOCATION
We will be based in one of the most stunning outdoor destinations in the whole of Europe, surrounded by spectacular lakes in every direction. Slovenia is an uncovered gem of Europe, yet providing the perfect destination for those who want to escape the city life and enjoy taking life back to the basics of nature.
We will be located just on the outskirts of Slovenia's only national park, and will be sure to make good use of it, with different adventures planned for every day of the trip. Majestic, mysterious, exciting, playful, and unique. Slovenia's only national park proudly covers 840 square kilometres in the heart of the Julian Alps.
Vast, enchanting forests, deep-carved valleys, high-altitude pastures, and crystal clear waters that flow down from the slopes of the country's highest mountain, Triglav, into rivers, lakes, and brooks.
