Slovenia

Slovenia Synopsis

Slovenia's baroque old towns, alpine lakes and emerald gorges are easier to reach than you'd think - this pocket-sized travel guide condenses them into the days that actually fit your trip.

Marco Polo is the proud map publishing partner for Race Across the World.

Off the well-trodden path, candlelit cellars pour vintages around Vipava's hillsides, and mountain huts above Triglav serve walkers bowls of buckwheat zganci after a day on the trails.

Further south, the limestone plateau hides dry-stone hamlets, quiet caverns and smoky air-dried ham, all within reach of the back roads charted on your pull-out map.
