It's okay if we haven't planned a special escape for the May Day holidays. We can also decide at the last minute and arrange real spring days according to our taste. Given how small a country we live in, we can experience Slovenia and its surroundings in a completely different way in just a few days.
Cycling on the Austrian lakes
It will be for those of a more active nature May Day cycling to Austrian lakes a unique experience. We have to get it good bike, helmet and bike bag and bravely go towards Kranjski Gori. So that the journey is not too tiring, we can ask our friends to drive us to Kranjska Gora and from there to the other side Podkoren we cycle towards Beljak, from where we explore the nearby lakes on bicycle paths. The route, apart from cycling across Podkoren, is not difficult, and traveling on two wheels will certainly be remembered by all of us.
Rafting in Kolpa
The suggestion of rafting on the Kolpa River will impress our friends who don't know where to go during the May Day holidays. It's cool she said calmly, especially in the lower part already a bit lazy, but if some more rain falls before the first of May, the experience will be straight adrenaline. During the day, let's surrender to the current and the rapids, let's paddle past pristine forests and let's stop at sunny picnic on the bank. We can spend the evenings in to the camp, but of course we will find some hotel or farm tourism, where we will have a great dinner and a good refreshment.
On foot, by bike or by car, you can spend the first days of May hiking around Ways of peace, which winds from Tolmina via Kobarid to Bovško and thus, on the approximately 90-kilometer-long route, we get to know the traces of the Soča Front. Enthusiastic about our history, culture and lush and wonderful nature, we will devour the sights as if for a bet, immortalize them with a camera Kozjak waterfall or adrenaline descent with by parachute, kayak or raft. Let's not forget to explore the pristine ones corners of the Soča valley, which was in World War I the scene of bloody battles, which today is evidenced by numerous remains, monuments and landmarks. Finally, let's visit again Kobari Museum, which will certainly not leave us indifferent with the displayed military objects, weapons and photographs.
The taste of Prekmurje
No, at planning the May Day holidays we can't at all past Venice, a romantic city on the water, which has been inviting travelers from all over the world into its charming embrace for many years. If in high school we experienced them more like a school excursion and explored them with half-open eyes, this year's spring is ideal for a romantic stroll through the most beautiful Canale Grande water street, along which we will take a boat past beautiful palaces, on the Rialto Bridge, where there are a number of shops, and we will be able to buy Murano glass, lace or a souvenir book. Trg Campo S. Margherita invites you to rest and have a chilled drink, concerts and more alternative events, while food stalls and tango dancers can be found on square Campo S. Giacomo dell'Orio. It is suitable for a quick break outside of Venice the picturesque nearby island of Burano, where we can wait for a beautiful sunset. [caption id="attachment_62661" align="alignnone" width="660"]
