The summer is on! I have enjoyed the wild and peaceful corners of Savinja and Šalek Valley - been partying next to Velenje Lake, swimming in Savinja river, descending the Cuc canyon, have done rafting and been to the highest Slovenian tourist cave, Snežna jama cave that prouds itself with ice sculpctures even in the hot summer days. Fishing?.. Hm... That' s something that is on my bucket list for next weeks.
1. DISCOVERING THE HIDDEN CORNERS NEXT TO SAVINJA RIVER
Finding the perfect spot next to vivid Savinja river is a perfect idea for hot summer days. In some parts Savinja river is deep enough for swimming and the sandy coast covered with smooth stones is a great place for enjoying nature. The temperature of the river varies during the year and also depends on location, but is approx. 20 degrees Celsius.
