Many moods of Lake Bled

by karenincalifornia

Lake Bled has many different faces. Sometimes it is at peace. Sometimes not. This is a picture of Lake Bled in the afternoon. Rather at peace at the moment.The lake was carved by the recession of the Bohinj glacier.

At the edge of the Pannonian plain lies the attractive Radenci Health Spa. Radenska ''Three Hearts'' mineral water, which at the beginning of the century was served at the imperial court in Vienna and at the papal court the Vatican, is now known all around the world.

Below Mount Kanin there is a picturesque Soca River Valley and the resort town of Bovec where the world's best kayakers and canoeists compete and fly fisherman pursue the leusive Soca trout. As well Soca is known as the cleanest Slovenian river. This picture was taken in Most na Soci, very interesting village which is split by the river Soca (most = bridge).

Rombon

by KiNyA

Hiking Rombon was not just average hiking. Why? Because behind everything there's affecting story of the World War I. So sad....We started at Kluze, a place where a huge building from WW I is built. We were hiking for several hours up to the top. We returned on the other way to Bovec and had a Lasko there. I think the whole hiking thing took us about 9 hours. Highly recommended to hike if you've got time.

Kocna

by KiNyA

With 2540 meters Kocna is defenitely one of the most beautiful peaks in Slovenia. The footpath is registred as a very exacting but I can tell you it's not so bad. Not at all. We started at Jezersko, passing Ceska koca (mountain hut), and then we reaches the magnificent peak in few hours. e went back down to the Ceska koca (but not on the same path). From there evry few of us went to the Ledine mountain hut, and then back to Jezersko. It took us about 10 hours.
