Rakov Škocjan

Rakov Škocjan

Rakov Škocjan is a picturesque karst valley, formed by the sinking and collapsing of a cave ceiling. We visited this breathtaking place on our way home from the seaside. An education trail leads through the valley with various points of interest; from old ruins to natural sights.

It’s been a while since I updated my journal. We adopted a dog, I changed my camera gear and we chilled at this beautiful spot by the river Sava Bohinjka.

Our second time visiting Luče and staying at House Raduha. Breznik family was happy with the photos I took in the summer and they invited us back for another treat. This time we chose a night in the hayrack.

House Raduha

House Raduha

"House Raduha is located in the old centre of Luce. It got its name from the Raduha Mountain, which slopes down a ridge to the rocky threshold Breznica right at the edge of the village. The only things separating the house and the Breznica threshold is the Savinja River and our garden, which features living units in a beautiful architectural distribution. 
House Raduha, known among the locals as 'pri Medetu', has been welcoming guests ever since 1875. The cooking skills of grandmothers have helped hone the mastery of granddaughters for four generations. You will rarely find such an inspired combination of tradition and modern influences as in House Raduha."

Mangart saddle

Hiking around Mangart saddle with great views all around. Mangart is Slovenia’s fourth highest mountain with a very convenient access - the Mangart road (Slovenia’s highest road). We didn't ascend the mountain itself but merely circled around the plateau. Next time we'll surely conquer it.
