As you already know, we spent the last week of our vacation in Slovenia. It's a tiny country and you can see a different landscape and climate types in a small area. Nature there is wild and amazing.
In today's post, I'll show you the northwestern mountainous part of Slovenia.
In commercials, we like to call it On the sunny side of the Alps.
Enjoy.
If you avoid Highways and you not afraid of narrow winding roads on your journey, you can see many villages like this one.
This miniature hey stack is part of traditional farming and heritage. Nowadays more like an attraction than of a real use.
You can still find a lot of stuff from First World War in the public and private Museums and on the fields and mountains. The hidden cavern is just one of examples.
Wild spring creek.
No chlorine, I can guarantee.
Young Tilia branches with their shiny leaves growing from the tree trunk.
Churches in the mountains are not as spectacular as in Barcelona but they serve the same purpose and people always find shelter for their bodies and souls at hard times in their life.
This is how the street sign looks like in the mountain crossroad.
The flock of sheep is happy about spring arrival, and blooming apple tree in the background is a perfect match for a good photo.
Cheesemaking is centuries old tradition here and the stables still serve their purpose. It's nice to see they preserve tradition and built the new ones in the same way as old.
The mountain on the left, with the most snow on top of it, is called Krn, the same as the village on the photo. This is the view from the South.
The same mountain with a different village. View from the West.
After all day hiking, we needed to replenish our dehydrated bodies with some fresh electrolytes. The bottle of the famous brand of Slovenian beer was more than capable of doing that.
Well, if I want to be honest, just one bottle was not quite enough.
Cheers, my friends.
