Slovenia: Julian Alps and Soča River Valley

More info about travel to Slovenia: https://www.ricksteves.com/europe/slovenia This northwestern corner of Slovenia is busy with visitors both winter and summer. The Julian Alps, laced with hiking paths and alpine villages, and the milky-blue Soča River flowing down into the peaceful valley below offer plenty of diversions for nature-lovers. This terrain also has a terrible war history—it was the Soča Front during World War I; a nearby museum tells the story.
