National Parks

Triglav National Park is named after the highest Slovenian mountain, Triglav (2,864 m), which lies in the very center of the park. It covers as many as 840 square kilometers of forests and rugged mountain terrain (four percent of Slovenia’s surface).

Two major rivers originate in the park. The Soca River which flows into the Adriatic Sea, and the Sava River which merges with the Danube River in Belgrade (Serbia) and later flows into the Black Sea in Romania. Among the many attractions of the park are numerous alpine valleys, difficult-to-access gorges, troughs, high-altitude lakes, and waterfalls. In addition, as many as 637 caves are registered in the park, and some of them are world-famous.

The park encompasses a rugged highland with its characteristic growth and life, in the intermediate valleys we find a friendlier environment, and on the southern side, the influence of the Adriatic Sea appears in individual places. It is the habitat of many protected plant and animal species. Here you will be able to encounter mountain eagles, ibex, chamois, wild roosters, etc.

In the area of the park, there are more than 25 settlements with many churches, old homesteads, and a rich cultural and historical heritage.

In the immediate vicinity of the apartments is the nature reserve Zelenci, which you should mark as one of your hiking destinations.
