Bohinj

Bohinj – the heart of the Alps. This is the concept which can help us to understand the hardly explainable blissfulness of the place.

Virgin lakes, translucent and shiny rivers, the mountain world in it’s many diversive forms, cultural and architectural attractions, formed in the strange harmony of this world. The language of travel guides is simply not enough to express all this fullness. On the other hand – this is the reason why Bohinj is the name of something larger than geographical concepts.
