Discovering Slovenia: Too Many Reasons to Fall in Love

Welcome to our latest European campervan adventure! In this video, we take you on a journey through the enchanting landscapes of Slovenia's Triglav National Park. From its stunning alpine scenery to its crystal clear lakes and the sublime colours of the Soco River, Slovenia offers countless reasons to fall in love.

We absolutely loved our time in the Triglav National Park. It is probably one of our happiest places in the world. Join us as we hike to to stunning waterfalls, cycle the famous Vrsic mountain pass and drop into the exquisite Soco river valley.

We are Richard and Jackie and we live in the UK. We retired from teaching at the age of 51 in the summer of 2022. Our plans for early requirement include relocating to the Yorkshire Dales, developing our forever home and travelling the UK, Europe and eventually the world in our VW campervan Nelson.

Jackie and Richard - best adventure film I’ve seen in ages ! Watching you both scaling those cliffs and waterfalls, maneuvering those winding roads, the COLOURS in that landscape, village trips, pristine lakes - what a trip you took us on! Thank you!

I'm 57 and still working because I spent a chunk of my pension buying a van two years ago!

I was in kranjska gora 9 years ago, hiking and cycling. It's stunning.

Your video is not bad. I am surprised you did not go to Planica as it was on your doorstep from Kranjska Gora plus Tromjeja which is also very close from the charming village of Ratece
