Always put safety first
For many of the trails in Bohinj, a good mood and suitable hiking shoes are enough, but others can be much more challenging. Of course, not everyone needs to go to Triglav, as a walk along the lake can be a real experience of colour and light, beautiful views and idyllic spots. Respect yourself and your limitations, as well as nature and its capricious ability to turn from an idyllic oasis into a dangerous experience in the blink of an eye. On the website of the Slovenian Mountaineering Association you can read detailed guidance on mountain safety in different situations and seasons.
