Trekking Slovenian Alps is exciting because it also takes us to fairly undiscovered areas of the Triglav National Park. Among them is Radovna Valley that lies between the plateau of Pokljuka and Mežakla and is great trekking tour. At the end of the valley, the Radovna River flows through the famous Vintgar Gorge and later descends into the Šum Waterfall.
The Vrata Valley extends from Mojstrana and Dovje village to the foothills of the Triglav northern slope. The valley represents a popular starting point for all hikers, who ascend to Mount Triglav.
Along the way through the Vrata Valley, the Julian Alps hiking tour will take us to the Peričnik Waterfall. The picturesque waterfall falls 53 meters deep into the valley. Peričnik Waterfall is especially glorious in winter when it turns into an icy kingdom and creates wonderful ice candles.
The Zelenci nature reserve is located halfway between Kranjska Gora and Rateče. The Julian Alps trekking tour takes us through the natural park, where the biggest attraction is the lake that will impress you with its emerald green color.
Here, the Sava Dolinka River finds its way to the surface. Zelenci springs are also beautiful in winter for trekking tour when their green color comes out in the snowy white surroundings and snowy mountain peaks in the background.

The Krnica Valley is a 6-kilometer-long alpine valley, which begins a few kilometers outside the town of Kranjska Gora. The Julian Alps hiking trail through Krnica Valley starts at Lake Jasna. Around the lake, there is a path with piers and a viewing platform. In front of the lake stands the famous bronze statue of the alpine ibex.

The best thing ever. I took my old boss to experience Slovenia in one day. And boy I am happy I chose Altitude Activities to do so. Our tour guide Jerry was awesome, funny and you could just see he knows what he is doing. We went to the canyon of Jermanka and even though there is a drop almost 45m high we felt extremely safe. Overall highly suggest going canyoning with Altitude Activities
