Sunflower Landscapes Slovenia A Countryside Guide

Whether you use this book to explore by car or on foot, you will find that 'small is beautiful' certainly applies to Slovenia, which is only half the size of Switzerland. The jagged snow-capped peaks of the Julian Alps contrast with fertile valleys full of colour and activity. The porous limestone rock has created the Karst landscape; underground rivers cascade down in dramatic waterfalls, narrow gorges pierce the cliffs, caves and natural rock arches abound. The people are prosperous, friendly and eager to share their pride in the beauty and heritage of their homeland. Tourist facilities are modern, spotlessly clean and blend in sensitively with the countryside.
