Saudi Sportive: Bohinj

Bohinj Slovenia

Many visitors to Slovenia say they’ve never seen a more beautiful lake than Bled… that is, until they’ve seen Lake Bohinj, just 26km to the southwest. We’ll refrain from weighing in on the Bled versus Bohinj debate other than to say we see their point. Bohinj admittedly doesn’t have Bled’s glamour, but it’s less crowded and in many ways more authentic. It’s an ideal spot for a summer holiday. People mainly come here to unwind or swim in the crystal-clear, blue-green water, with gentle cycling and walking trails to keep them occupied. There are plenty of outdoor activities like kayaking, hiking and horse riding if you’re up for it, and the charming villages to the lake’s northeast have, remarkably, stayed true to traditional ways of life such as dairy herding and farming.
