Walking the Slovenian Alps

All breakfasts and three dinners are included.

The location where the group will have their third dinner will be decided on tour according to the group’s preferences.

Breakfast: Continental with tea, coffee, cereal, bread and a selection of meats and cheeses, jams and yoghurt.

Lunch: Will usually be in a mountain hut. Options can be limited, but all meals are cooked from scratch using fresh local ingredients and will include hearty soups and juice made from wild berries and elderflower.

Evening meal: This will consist of three courses. The main dishes can be risotto, cheese dishes, fish, spaghetti and grilled meat. The guesthouse uses delicious salads and vegetables from the gardens plus other locally sourced produce. Three dinners at the pension are included, for the other nights you’re free to enjoy the restaurants in Radovljica.

Vegetarians are well catered for, but please let us know in advance if you have any dietary requirements.

Airport transfers will be in private minibuses. Transfers to and from the walks will be by public transport, where available and practical; alternatively, a private minibus will be provided.

We stay in Pension Kunstelj, which dates to 1873 and is run by the fourth generation of the Štiherle family. The 10-room accommodation sits in the most protected historic town in Slovenia, Radovljica, where there are plenty of restaurants and bars for the nights when dinner is not included.

It has a large terrace with views across the valley to the surrounding peaks, including Triglav in the far distance, and to the rear of the property is a large vegetable plot, where you might see staff picking fruit and salads for dinner in the evening. The family also keep bees, whose honey is sold locally.
