Ronchi dei Legionari
2 augustus 2022, Italië ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C
Just kidding it's all gone to plan. Too well to plan... I'm almost disappointed. Ronchi dei Legionari is a very sleepy deserted town, also interestingly there is a lot of the Slovenian language aroundMeer informatie

How is it even possible for a river be this colour?! From the first of what I anticipate will be many swims, the temperature is refreshingly cold, but thankfully not Valbonë freezing
Tolmin Gorges

After sinking 8 ice lollies and like a kilogram of grapes in Tolmin, I enjoyed the 'nature' along the Tolminka river as I made my way to Tolmin Gorges. My first time back in Triglav national park inMeer informatie

Without a doubt the most luxurious hostel I will ever stay at.
Kobarid
4 augustus 2022, Slovenië ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C
Wow Kobarid is an incredibly beautiful place; England just doesn't compare. It's hard to believe that 12 battles took place here in 29 months during World War One, as well as the town hosting the siteMeer informatie

Trnovo ob Soci

Bovec
6 augustus 2022, Slovenië ⋅ 🌧 20 °C
Much of today was spent in Bovec (pronounced Bovetz). It was nice to have a relaxed day and only cough up mild quantities of phlegm. I even then got back in time to see the mighty Bournemouth win theMeer informatie
Soca

Soca is just a dispersed settlement throughout this particular valley, but it feels like a good name to whack down a footprint from this morning, which has been so good! It's so so much easier hikingMeer informatie
