About this activity

This day tour is a great, dynamic & fun day out, where you explore the best spots of the Triglav National Park, Soča Valley and the Julian Alps.

It's a small-group escape into the wild heart of Triglav National Park!

Slovenia is small, but its beauty is not, and one day in the Julian Alps shows you why people fall for this country.

You'll drive the dramatic Vršič Pass, hike on amazing trails, and watch the Soča River run that unreal emerald green, the colour the trip is named for.

Feeling brave? Add an optional white-water raft down the emerald Soča (extra fee), our guests' favorite thrill. Round-trip transport, park fees and free photos are sorted, and groups stay small (max 8 per guide), so it feels less like a tour and more like a good old road trip with a friend showing you the best stuff.

Please note: this tour has no fixed route or set stops, the itinerary is decided spontaneously by your guide.
