As Slovenia is known for its natural beauty adventurers will enjoy the waterfalls, mountains, caves and lakes located in the Savinja and Šalek Valley.

Loved the bridge with the locks on it … this bridge was the first and inspired MANY others afterwards. 
Who knew you could get milk from a vending machine?!
