    Written February 2009

    This was the first trip I had done alone and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  The group was friendly, accommodation excellent and the leaders helpful and thoughtful.

    What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?
    Walking around at the top of the mountain while the snow was falling.  It was exhilerating to be out in the snow with the mountains and beautiful scenery.
    What did you think of your group leader?

    Ales and Juri were excellent.  They looked after the group well, had a great sense of humour and were able to tell us about the country.

     

     

    Do you have any advice for potential travellers?

    I would like to have been a little bit fitter - the itinerary does involve walking up hills which can be hard work if the snow is deep.  You need to ensure your walking boots are waterproof - bring your nikwax to redo them if necessary.  Waterproof overtrousers are also a must.  The pension is really warm so there was no need for lots of thick jumpers for the evening.  I would say to anyone who is thinking about it to go for it - I was apprehensive but had no regrets.

    Bastion (sorry if the name is wrongly spelt) has a lovely pension, he took us on a tour of the kitchen and the new rooms he is opening at the top of the house.  It was warm and spotlessly clean, constant hot water which was particularly welcome after spending a night at the mountain hut and walking back down through the rain and snow. 
    Is there anything else you would like to add?
    If you think you might lose weight, don't hold out your hopes - the food was very substantial!

    What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?

    I enjoyed reaching summits and I enjoyed the lunches in mountain huts.

     The group mixed and socialised well.

    What did you think of your group leader?

    We had two very able young leaders: Clem assisted by the charming Mojca.

    Clem kept changing his tops much to the pleasure of some ladies who liked to admire his six-pack.

    Do you have any advice for potential travellers?
    The food is good but sausages and barley broth feature frequently in the local diet.
    Is there anything else you would like to add?
    Beautiful countryside and a great holiday. I would certainly want to take another Exodus trip in that part of the world.

    The holiday was well thought out and the Slovenian leaders and hotel staff were excellent. Despite snow everywhere else in Europe it was limited at this time in Slovenia. The two leaders made every effort to take us out and find routes and the last day was spectacular. We had lunch in mountain huts and homemade soup and strudel was much appreciated. The hotel was excellent and they made a real effort to cater for non meat eaters.

    What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?
    The last day was brilliant with snow fit for snowshoeing right from the start. One of the leaders had a friend who she persuaded to go out into the hills and open a simple mountain hut for us. At the highest point of our day we were able to drink hot spiced wine and eat local cake. Magic.
    What did you think of your group leader?
    The two leaders, both called Mojca, were absolutely brilliant. When we got home there was an email from them with a photographic record of our week
    Do you have any advice for potential travellers?

    Although there is normally a bit more snow at Christmas, our two guides, both called Mojca, went out of their way to find us places where we could use the snowshoes.The Triglav National Park in Slovenia is beautiful in the snow and the Slovenian people are so pleased that we travelled from UK to visit their country.
