WWI Bunker
Cool WWI Bunker. Good campsite, but leave no trace!

Water
Clean water well, fill up bottles before long climb.

Lake Bled
Don't camp too visibly anywhere in the vicinity!

Swimming Hole
Amazing turquoise water swimming hole. Cold!

Logging Roads
Network of logging roads for exploration and camping.

Sv. Jakob
Iconic example of typical Slovenian church on the top of the hill. Nice view. More of those coming...

Škofja Loka
One of the oldest slovenian towns with a nice castle.

Jamnik
Another famous and picturesque church with a magnificent view.

Kreda spring
Great place for swimming. Do not sleep there (TNP!)

Napoleon bridge
Optional little detour to the lovely old bridge. Picturesque place for a swim!

Kobarid
Nice historic town with a sad WWI history. There is a big WWI monument above the town and a really touching WWI museum in the center.

Napoleon bridge no 2
See the river gorge from another Napoleon bridge.

Solkan bridge
The biggest one-arched stone bridge in the world. An engineering treasure!

Predjama castle
One of the nicest Slovenian castles with a great legend behind it. Ask around for the story!

Postojna cave
Along with Bled Lake one of the flagships of Slovenian tourism. A bit pricey, but very impressive.

Škocjan
Nice underground river. Lock the bike and take a walk down thought the caves. Free!

ško jezero
One of the biggest dissapearing lakes in Europe. Nice landscape regardless of the water level, but especially nice in spring or autumn flooding season.

Singletrack
Nice singletrack. Nice alternative to tarmac road.

ški vintgar
Cold but nice gorge, suitable for a picnic/swimming/stealth sleeping before returning to Ljubljana.

Ljubljanska marshes
Quite busy and narrow.

Sv. Mohor
Great place for a snack break from the hilly traverse.

Supermarket

Boka waterfall
View onto the the biggest Slovenian waterfall

Bivak Hlek
Nice free little cottage for overnight, but can be busy during the main season. Pay respect to the maintainers and leave the place better than you have found it.
