Itinerary

Expand All

Day 1 : Arrive In Bovec

Meals Included: Breakfast

Arrive at your hotel in Bovec.

Day 2 : Bovec Basin And Koritnica Valley

Meals Included: Breakfast

Today you will explore the Bovec Basin passing through woods and pastures with panoramic views of the valley and mountains. Cross over the Soča river, looking out for kayakers on the turquoise waters and near the village of Kal Koritnica you'll start to follow a section of the Walk of Peace and return to Bovec via the Ravelnik outdoor museum.

Day 3 : Pluzna Village Walk

Meals Included: Breakfast

A varied walk, ascending into the foothills NW of Bovec. Explore the old village, then walk through deciduous woodland to the attractive village of Pluzna before arriving at the beautiful waterfall Slap Virje, a superb bathing spot for a hot day. Pass the mysterious source of the Glijuna river which gushes out of a moss-covered jumble of boulders below the limestone cliffs. Follow an aqueduct to pass a reservoir and descend through pleasant woods and farmland back to Bovec.

Day 4 : Trenta To Bovec

Meals Included: Breakfast

A transfer takes you to Trenta from where you follow the Soča Trail (‘Pot Soča’) downstream, along the valley. Enjoy forests, lush meadows and river views before ascending to a waterfall. Pass farms and small settlements to reach the Soča gorge, which you walk alongside. In some places the gorge is only 2 metres wide. Following the river, which you cross several times on pedestrian suspension bridges, you walk beside the Krsovec gorge and finally leave the river to ascend to Bovec.

Day 5 : Bovec To Trnovo (Ribcev Laz)

Meals Included: Breakfast, Dinner

Leaving Bovec, you walk through woods and pastures until you reach the impressive Slap Boka waterfall, the highest in Slovenia at 144 metres. Cross the Soča River and after passing through the village of Log Cezsoski, walk along the valley on a gravel track, sometimes close to the river. You pass a 63m long suspension bridge, a great place for a picnic and to watch rafts and kayakers below. A transfer takes you to Ribcev Laz for your next 3 nights.

Day 6 : Lake Bohinj And Savica Waterfall

Meals Included: Breakfast, Dinner

The obvious introductory walk to the Bohinj area and one which should not be missed. This is a simple walk on level, mostly good paths but with short sections of tree roots and rocks towards the far end of the north (better) shore. It can be combined with the Savica Waterfall route and - particularly if that combination should prove too long - you can return from Ukanc by bus or boat. To add to the variety, swimmers may indulge themselves as the lake's waters are warm in summer.

Day 7 : Mostnica River And Gorge

Meals Included: Breakfast, Dinner

Today you'll follow a wonderfully sculptured narrow limestone gorge with green pools and rapids before entering a lovely alpine pasture full of wild flowers in late spring. There is a shady waterfall at the far end of the walk before returning to Ribcev Laz.

Day 8 : Depart Ribcev Laz

Meals Included: Breakfast

Return to Ljubljana for your flight home or enjoy extra nights in this lively city.

Very helpful and prompt service

06-Jan-2023

Very helpful and prompt service. I called to check for an already booked trip and once we sorted this, the agent was ready to help me with another booking as well. He actually waited for me to book my flight tickets, answered all my questions, informed me of all my options. Exodus is a tour company I am using regularly due to the quality of their trips, ease of booking and helpfulness of their customer service team

Stunning walking. Walking the Amalfi Coast

04-Nov-2021

This trip takes you through the most beautiful parts of the Mediterranean walking with a guide and also discovering the wonders of Pompeii and Vesuvius. The hotel had a nice feel as family run, spotless and comfortable rooms, we were well looked after for breakfasts and dinner each day, and the barmen fixed some mean cocktails for us.!

It's amazing what you can do in a week! Cycling the Dalmatian Coast.

08-Oct-2021

This holiday was extremely enjoyable. The itinerary is well planned and the route takes you to a variety of destinations. Not having been to Croatia before I didn't know there were so many beautiful small islands and I loved the ferry and catarmaran rides. The coastal route we took was dramatic and the World Heritage sites in Split and Dubrovnik very interesting and worth visiting. The Adriatic Sea was warm, blue and inviting, good for swimming even in October. The hotels we stayed in varied in size from medium to large. I particularly liked the one just outside Dubrovnik as I had a sea view. Tourists were plentiful in Split and Dubrovnik but in the other places we stayed there was an end of season feel and it was quiet on the roads and in the resorts. The food was good and our guide was always able to recommend a nice restaurant for our evening meal. The weather in October was good for cycling - not hot, partly cloudy most days and one day it rained!

Fabulous company and trip

06-Jan-2023

We went overland from Cape Town to Zimbabwe through Botswana and Namibia. What a fantastic trip. Our first time with Exodus although we have travelled extensively around the world. We would highly recommend this company for such a brilliant trip - we got everything and more all at a good price. Thanks to everyone involved. We are looking at our next trip!

19-Aug-2023

I went cycling in Albania with exodus as my first holiday with them. Such a well organised and wonderful experience where I met multiple fellow travellers who have been advocates of them for many years. You can't argue with happy repeat customers and I'm planning my next adventure with them soon

17-May-2023

I've done 8 trips in the last 14 years with Exodus, and have been rewarded with a 10% discount on all future bookings. I feel very confident that I'll receive pleasant, efficient service, and have the unusual holiday experience that I'm looking for each time. I've trekked to the top of snow-capped peaks, wild-camped in the desert, seen amazing spectacles of nature, visited 4 capital cities in a week, and learned about local culture and experienced local hospitality in a way that I simply wouldn't on a conventional holiday. The quality of the accommodation and guides can vary, but this is mainly down to cultural differences and things that Exodus can't control. I've only ever complained once, my complaint was taken seriously, and I was sent a discount voucher - you can't say fairer than that. I remain a loyal customer.

21-Aug-2024

Exodus are generally a good travel company. Things tend to run smoothly and trips well organised. Their customers tend to be at retirement age. Trips are a bit overpriced. I would also avoid trips in Europe, as these often focus on more coffee stops and meals, rather than walking. I would also recommend making sure your guide records any accidents you have, hopefully not applicable. I had one on Sierra de Aitana which the guide saw and knew about, but he and Exodus said it never happened when I followed up after the trip. I wasn’t putting in a claim, just suggested a safety improvement. They have since apologised and acknowledged this as an error. They are a good reliable option for outside of Europe trips.

07-Mar-2024

Food came quickly. Staff very friendly and polite . However the chef or person preparing the food did not seem to read the menu! If it says a meal should come with vegetables, you should not have to ask for them. They served shepherds pie with garlic bread! The munchies ice cream sundae said it should come in a glass with a flake but came in a little bowl with just a few munchies! When asking the staff were happy to replace and correct but customer should get what they order and what menu says first time round!!

07-Sep-2023

If you like to be mistreated Exodus is perfect for you. If you enjoy terrible choices for hotels and pseudo restaurants Exodus is perfect for you. Careless about their clients and loveless about their propositions. Exodus has been a dissatisfaction and disappointment about every dealing i and my group have had with him. Especially a man called Simone who just cares about the money he can get from you couldn’t care less about service.
