When I mentioned to my friends that I was going to Slovenia, none of them could find it on a map, which just made me want to visit even more!<\/p>\n<p>After one week discovering its delights, from the seaside south to the alpine north, you\u2019ll wonder why it took you so long to get there. And that&#8217;s another bonus of this European gem! Many highlights CAN be seen in just 7 days. Here&#8217;s how:<\/p>\n<h2>Day 1: Piran<\/h2>\n<p>With its Venetian gothic architecture, cypress trees, and small marina, Piran is a laid-back coastal town that feels pretty Italian. Your first stop is Tartinijev Trg, a startling marble oval that serves as Piran\u2019s central \u201csquare\u201d. Admire the 19<sup>th<\/sup>-century Town Hall and Court House as well as the gothic Venetian House, before popping into the small but fantastic aquarium.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_27305\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27305\" class=\"size-full wp-image-27305\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_piran_town-adriatic-coast.jpg\" alt=\"Slovenia one week guide Piran\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_piran_town-adriatic-coast.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_piran_town-adriatic-coast-425x239.jpg 425w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_piran_town-adriatic-coast-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_piran_town-adriatic-coast-585x329.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27305\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Piran<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Next, walk up to the church of St George up on the ridge, passing several other churches and a Franciscan monastery on the way. The top of the bell tower affords the most stupendous views. Be wary of the bells though. They startled me when they suddenly started ringing! The remaining section of the 15<sup>th<\/sup>-century town walls offers a spot for quiet contemplation.<\/p>\n<p>Back at sea level, have a seafood lunch at <em>Ivo<\/em> or casual <em>Fritolin pri Cantini<\/em>, then spend the hottest part of the day exploring the narrow streets around Maja Trg in the oldest part of town. Piran is one of the best-preserved medieval towns on the Adriatic.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in Piran\u2019s history (or just ships in general), drop by the Maritime Museum before it closes, then enjoy dinner on the waterfront while watching the sunset.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"\/adventures\/active-travel-slovenia\/\"><strong>LOVE BEING ACTIVE?

You can visit part of the impressive 3-mile (5 kilometers) long prehistoric karst caves on a guided tour. Stalactites, stalagmites, limestone pools and more; they\u2019re all here.<\/p>\n<p>Back in Piran, it\u2019s time for a swim. On the north side of the peninsula, Fiesa beach is small and rocky but has the cleanest water. If you prefer a large sandy beach, head to the resort of Portoro\u017e, reachable by road or by boat, to the south of Piran.<\/p>\n<h2>Day 3: Ljubljana<\/h2>\n<p>Ljubljana, Slovenia\u2019s pint-size capital, straddles the banks of the Ljubljanica River, and is small enough to explore on foot. Its stunning architecture\u00a0\u2013 in soft pastel and cream shades\u00a0\u2013 represents many different periods and styles.<\/p>\n<p>Start at Pre\u0161ernov Trg, the main city square with its iconic salmon-colored Franciscan church and the monument to poet France Pre\u0161eren. Then cross the river into the Old Town over the Triple Bridge.<\/p>\n<p>The many outdoor caf\u00e9s along the river make perfect lunch stops. For dessert, try <em>kremna retzina<\/em> (a yummy traditional custard cream cake) at <em>Marley &amp; Me<\/em> on cobble-stoned Stari Trg.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_27300\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27300\" class=\"size-full wp-image-27300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/KremnaRezina-e1527441722353.jpg\" alt=\"Slovenia week guide cake\" width=\"800\" height=\"542\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27300\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kremna rezina<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Continue exploring the Old Town, including the City Hall, Central Market, and whimsical Dragon Bridge. Next, make your way up to Ljubljana Castle for a bird\u2019s eye view over the orange roofs and church spires.<\/p>\n<h2>Day 4: Ljubljana<\/h2>\n<p>After a substantial breakfast (perhaps at <em>Slovenska Hisa<\/em>), time to put on your thinking cap and visit one of Ljubljana\u2019s top museums such as the <em>National Museum of Slovenia<\/em> (mostly devoted to history), <em>Museum of Modern Art<\/em>, or <em>National Gallery<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Grab a <em>burek<\/em> or grilled meat sandwich from one of the many stands and go eat it in nearby Tivoli Park. The sprawling park combines lawns with tree-lined walkways, trails, fountains, and flowerbeds. Rent a bike to explore at your leisure, stroll around, or just sit and crack open a book. As one of the world\u2019s top green capitals, the whole city is very bike-friendly.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_27303\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27303\" class=\"size-full wp-image-27303\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_ljubljana_church-river-town.jpg\" alt=\"Slovenia one week guide\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_ljubljana_church-river-town.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_ljubljana_church-river-town-425x239.jpg 425w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_ljubljana_church-river-town-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_ljubljana_church-river-town-585x329.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27303\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lovely Ljubljana<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In late afternoon, go up to the caf\u00e9 on the 11<sup>th<\/sup> floor of the Neboti\u010dnik building (Slovenia\u2019s oldest skyscraper) for a drink with 360-degree views.<\/p>\n<p>If you still need to work up an appetite, walk along Miklo\u0161i\u010deva Street and admire the Art Nouveau buildings (#8 is my favorite) before going back to the Old Town for dinner at <em>Julija<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"\/adventures\/10-reasons-slovenia-should-be-your-next-big-eurotrip\/\"><strong>READ MORE: 10 REASONS SLOVENIA SHOULD BE ON YOUR EUROPEAN BUCKET LIST<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Day 5: Bled<\/h2>\n<p>Probably the most well-known spot in Slovenia, Bled is incredibly scenic. So, be sure to venture from the capital to this charming small town. Here you&#8217;ll find forested hills aplenty and a lake sprouting a tiny island where stands the baroque <em>Church of the Assumption<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>A must-do is boarding a hand-propelled wooden gondola (or \u201cpletna\u201d) to reach the island, or rent your own rowing boat. You can also enjoy the scene from afar by walking around the lake, a distance of only 3.7 miles (6 kilometers).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_27301\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27301\" class=\"size-full wp-image-27301\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_lake-bled_church-island-mountains.jpg\" alt=\"Slovenia one week guide\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_lake-bled_church-island-mountains.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_lake-bled_church-island-mountains-425x239.jpg 425w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_lake-bled_church-island-mountains-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Intrepid-Travel-slovenia_lake-bled_church-island-mountains-585x329.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27301\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Picture-perfect Bled<\/p><\/div>\n<p>After a fortifying coffee (try <em>Sla\u0161\u010di\u010darna Zima<\/em> for the best <em>kremna rezina<\/em> in Bled), climb up to Bled Castle through the forest on one of two trails (10 to 15 minutes). You can have lunch with a view at the Castle Restaurant, and hang around to enjoy the museum history collection and the small 16<sup>th<\/sup>-century chapel.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t overdosed on beautiful lake views yet, sit on the terrace of the Park Hotel for a drink in the late afternoon, but don\u2019t have dinner there.

It\u2019s an easy 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) hike through idyllic countryside that you thought existed only in your imagination: cows with bells grazing on emerald grass, vegetable gardens, and the sleepy village of Podhom. You can return through a different but equally scenic route via a forest.<\/p>\n<h2>Day 7: Bled (day trip to Lake Bohinj)<\/h2>\n<p>Lake Bohinj, at the foot of the Julian Alps in Triglav National Park, is an easy day trip from Bled and provides even more dramatic nature and fewer crowds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"\/adventures\/underrated-national-parks-europe\/\"><strong>TRIGLAV IS ONE OF EUROPE&#8217;S MOST UNDERRATED NATIONAL PARKS; READ ABOUT THE REST<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You have several options today. From the village of Rib\u010dev Laz, you could take a boat across the lake to Ukanc, then the cable car up Mt Vogel for spectacular views over the whole lake and valley. If the weather&#8217;s good, you can hike from here, through alpine scenery, back to Rib\u010dev Laz. Another worthwhile hike is to the Savica Waterfall, 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) inland from Ukanc.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_27307\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27307\" class=\"size-full wp-image-27307\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Lake-Bohinj-from-Mount-Vogel-e1527443008919.jpg\" alt=\"Slovenia week guide Lake Bojinj\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27307\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lake Bohinj from Mount Vogel<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Alternatively, if cycling is more your thing, rent a bike in Rib\u010dev Laz and loop through Stara Fuzina and several more villages, downhill along a small canyon, and finally through the town of Bohinjska Bistrica.
