Julian Alps Slovenia
In the north western corner of Slovenia, close to Austria and Italy, are the limestone mountains known as the Julian Alps. The Soca River is regarded by many to be one of the most beautiful in Europe. It flows through narrow gorges and over broad gravel beds. The river’s characteristic turquoise hue and the wild beauty of its rapids and ravines make it a wonderful place to explore.
