Slovenia, Austria & Italy: Alpine Valleys

Explore three lakes in three countries, experiencing authentic local culture as only VBT can reveal. Start by pedaling against the backdrop of the Julian Alps toward the azure waters of Italy’s Lahgi di Fusine lakes. As you cycle into the alpine village of Kranjska Gora with your local trip leaders, you’ll be welcomed into a traditional 18th-century Slovenian homestead, where you’ll learn the secrets of preparing rateški krapi (filled dumplings). You’ll even have the opportunity to try out some traditional Slovenian dance steps during a festive barn party. Your local trip leaders introduce you to a traditional Slovenian farmhouse, pausing for a home-cooked lunch on your way to enchanting Lake Bled. As you spin along peaceful bike paths toward Wörthersee Lake, you’ll look forward to another warm family welcome in Austria during a visit to a local home.

Ljubljana

This charming, inexpensive city with its relaxed pace, active cafe life and fondness for poets could be "the next Prague" with its own distinctive character. Several remaining structures show Roman and Baroque influences. The heart of the city lies on both sides of the Ljubljanica River. Over time, architects have used the Ljubljanica as an opportunity to build a handful of tasteful bridges. On one side of the river are the narrow cobblestone streets of the old town, which sits in the shadow of Ljubljana Castle. On the other side of the Ljubljanica is Tivoli castle, a graphic arts center, and the main shopping streets, lined by graceful art-nouveau buildings. The ultramodern Cultural and Congress Center, near the neo-rococo Opera House, is the setting for cultural performances. Worth seeing are the Franciscan Church and the Baroque town hall, with its monumental fountain. Hike to the top of 3,600-ft Mt. Katarina from Ljubljana. A trail begins in the suburb of Podutik before winding through spruce forests and up to a small church at the mountain's peak.
