For the seventh time, the summer in Bohinj will be brightened up by the Bohinj Children's Festival, which offers a pleasant variety of summer events in a wonderful atmosphere.

The Slovenian architectural office, Ofis arhitekti, completed the renovation of a traditional Gorenje barn, which was converted into an airy loft made of local spruce wood.

Tired of just being a spectator at ski jumps? Now you can ski over the world record length (251.5 m) and at the same time break the Slovenian record held by Peter Prevc with 250 meters. While a steel cable was recently strung over the ski jump in Planica, something similar was also done in Bohinj, where the ski jumping center in Polje was equipped with a device for simulating jumps, the first of its kind in Slovenia. The attraction BohinjSKI FLYer is marketed on the first crowdfunding platform TravelStarter, which is intended only for tourism-related projects and is also the result of Slovenian knowledge.

The nature in Bohinj is really beautiful, it takes one's breath away, so we are not surprised that the Majer'ca boutique hotel found its location right here.
The iconic boutique hotel at the foot of the Julian Alps, which was the first in Bohinj to offer heated bathrooms and other advanced hotel services in 1890, provided a special innovation during the closure of tourist accommodation. In addition to multiple award-winning culinary experiences, comfortable accommodation that follows the principles of digital detox, and friendly staff, the hotel now also offers a private Zlata vila wellness center.
The pearl of Gorenjska can boast of a new accommodation acquisition, the wonderful Bohinj Hotel, which invites everyone who wants authentic experiences and genuine contact with nature.
Bohinj is a wonderful holiday destination, even if only for an extended weekend. It offers a wide range of activities, from cycling to hiking and water sports, and at the same time promises a relaxing break in the embrace of unspoiled nature.
