fairytales from slovenia on #igtravelthursday
My love affair with Slovenia has been going strong for a year, and just keeps growing. Right when I thought that I’ve seen pretty much all the major sights, I realized that I’ve only just scratched the surface and that there is so much more waiting to be discovered!
My latest week in North-East and Central Slovenia on a trip themed “Pure Nature” showed me the crystal-clear rivers and turquoise lakes perfect for whitewater rafting and supping, sharp peaks of the Alps with waterfalls and little rivers perfect for canyoning, picturesque hotels to relax, cocktails at sunset – and more delicious food to feed both the body and soul. I came back tired yet invigorated, filled with energy and new ideas.
Here I’m sharing my highlights of the trip while I’m working on detailed stories of the sort adventures that await there – the first one on glamping by the famous Lake Bled is already out {link here: Glamping in Lake Bled }.
I hope you enjoy the colours of Slovenia and get some inspiration and ideas for your next adventures!
This panoramic mountain-side road from Logarska Valley to Na Klemenčem view point is definitely worth driving. It is marked with dragons to show the special view points and other sights ❤️ A photo posted by Reeta Laaksonen (@houseofanais) on

Gorgeous Logarska Valley – the entrance here really reminded me on the entrance to Yosemite …?
