Bovec

Still on the sunny side of the alps, Bovec is a real green piece of Europe, a must if you really want to feel sLOVEnia! Catchy official slogans aside, Slovenia’s supreme summer and winter sports town really offers a lot. Lying in the magnificent upper Soča valley in Northwestern Slovenia - an EU destination of excellence for 2008 - Bovec allows you to explore all the natural beauties of Triglav National Park. The town is a great base for summer activity holidays, hiking and mountain biking on land, paragliding from the surrounding alpine peaks through the air, or rafting and kayaking on the truly awesome turquoise waters of the river Soča. But perhaps the most popular time of year here is not the warm summer, but the winter ski season. The lifts to Kanin ski centre sit only half a kilometre from the centre of Bovec, making it a winter sports Mecca.
