Slovenia’s Triglav National Park is located between the Julian Alps and Karavanke on the triangular border of Slovenia, Italy and Austria. The high rising Slovenian Alps are one of the most little known yet most beautiful alpine regions in Europe, a wild, natural paradise, reminiscent of an enchanted world and a unique mountain landscape of outstanding beauty.

On a slope that leads down to the Trenta Valley is a monument that commemorates mountaineer and writer Doctor Julius Kugy who discovered both this location and the Julian Alps.

The two thousand five hundred and eighty seven metre high Kanin Mountain near Bovec is typical of the park’s karst and limestone landscape with its bare slopes and bizarre rock formations.

The highlight of this natural beauty is a high valley that contains seven lakes. The climb is rather testing but well worth it as wonderful alpine flora adorns the landscape. Many of the remarkable alpine flowers are endemic and can only be found in the high mountains.

The Triglav National Park impresses with its magnificent, contrasting scenery and is a natural paradise in the very heart of Europe!
