Very nice, I'm glad you like it here! :) I live near Tolmin, you should come around to see it :thumbsup:

The sea pictures are however from Croatia, some from islands Cres and Krk, some from "Jadranska magistrala", road from Rijeka to Zadar.

we did a delivery to Tolmin, because the van was full and heavy I wanted to avoid the mountain from bohinjska Bistrica? But we ended up on another mountain :rofl: then the delivery was up a mountain at ponikve slab ob idrici 5283

On the way back to Ribno we went the route Logatec to Ljubljana and the highway but there was many bends on the 102? Ideal for a z4 but not a van

The pictures are from a few months ago our house in Ribno and some pictures towards tolmin

Yeah, for someone who doesn't know the roads, it's easy to take the worst one :D towards Ljubljana the best road is Tolmin - Idrija - Logatec - highway - Ljubljana. Another one, also best for Kranj is Tolmin - Cerkno - Sovodenj - Gorenja vas - Skofja Loka - Kranj/Ljubljana.

From Kranjska gora it's the fastest route to go across Italy and take the Predel pass. You can go directly across Vrsic pass, but be ready for hundreds of tourists up there.

The route from Bohinj, Sorica, Podbrdo... it's scenic but bad road.

However, anywhere you go, there will be plenty of curves :D

We have been everywhere but I forget names, certainly into Tarvisio and down Bovec ….on the way into Tolmin there is an English owned guesthouse I delivered there a few months ago Grahovo ob Baci 5242 I think it’s near you

You have the best roads for an open top car anywhere you are lucky very lucky, any forum members wondering where to go on a road trip just try Slovenia it’s tiny but full of Beauty…there is a program is it the grand depart with Clarkson and Hammond they went to slovenia they seemed impressed at lake Bled but so much more to Slovenia than Bled

Grahovo ob Baci is near Tolmin, correct :thumbsup:

Keep on exploring :thumbsup: you can PM me for some more suggestions, but you should take them with a car, not with a van :D

Bled is however really overrated. The lake and the island are beautiful, but the rest of Bled and tourism there is... well... not that good. High prices, low to middle quality service. Even the famous dessert "Blejska kremsnita" is hard to find a good one in Bled. You can get them everywhere in Slovenia, another famous place to get it is Trojane (they are also famous for doughnuts). Or simply in a supermarket.
In Bled they just rely on new tourists who come to see the island and the lake, they just don't care about their service quality.
