Day 12 Tarvisio to Kranjska Gora


Based on sore joints and some inflammation we called an audible today and took a taxi to our current location.  We are happily back in Slovenia. Kranjska Gora is a beautiful ski town that features World Cup ski events each year, including a 2023 ski jumping event.  This is a quintessential ski town with a fantastic village at the base with a ton of shops and restaurants.  We are staying in a Ramada and spent the day resting by the pool and in the hot tub.  

Tomorrow we are renting bikes and riding the next leg of the route which should be fun.  Chris would like to hop a train for one leg of the trip so we could officially say the trip included planes, trains, buses, hiking, and biking but the route doesn’t have a train.  😥

We have a paragliding excursion planned for Saturday but there is rain in the forecast so not likely, but something we hope can happen.  



Picture of the beautiful church here in town.  The churches have been absolutely stunning. 


Cute picture of town.

Slovenia Hiking Trip

 Hello All.   Chris and I are headed to Slovenia for a hiking trip.  A friend of mine (Dick F.) uses this blogging tool to document his trips and share them with friends and family, so I thought I would give it a try.  Keep in  mind I don't know what I'm doing and this attempt may be an epic fail, but let's give it a try.  Feel free to forward to friends and family who might be interested.   Below is a link documenting our trip.  We are actually starting our hike at Stage 5 listed in the link. In terms of travel:  we depart tonight (Wednesday) at 9:30pm, flying through Warsaw Poland, then to Ljubljana Slovenia.  We'll hop on a bus and head towards our starting point in Bled.  We'll be staying in various hotels and hostels along the 150 mile route.   Juliana Trail in Julian Alps, a long distance trail | Slovenia Outdoor (slovenia-outdoor.com) https://slovenia-outdoor.com/en/map-detail-2/?id=34541732 Bon voyage Kev...

Day 13. Kranjska Gora - Mojstrana

 I just think Lasko would be a great dog name, don’t you? I mean just look at that goat face.🥰🥰 Today we decided to bike to our next town as we were able to rent bikes, bike to our next town, and then have the bikes picked up and returned to the rental place. The bike path was in really great shape and it was a great way to still “be on the ground” and really get a feel for the area, just at a faster pace. Amazing how you see an area differently depending on the mode of transportation you take through it. Once we arrived in Mojstrana, our location for tonight, we hiked to a waterfall. It was one of the better ones we have seen. It was a 6 mile hike round trip with a bit extra with elevation up to the waterfall so we still got a few steps in. We are staying at a super cute hostel and the people staying here are from a wide variety of backgrounds and ages. It’s awesome to see so many people doing so much outdoors. We have a long hike tomorrow with the weather looking like rain so w...
