Slovenia with your class
Slovenia punches far above its size as a school trip destination. Based on the shores of Lake Bohinj, a glacial lake inside Triglav National Park, the programme rotates students through climbing, canoeing, and cycling, with a guided hike through the national park and a teacher-led walk to the Savica Waterfall. The programme builds to white-water rafting on the emerald Soča river, followed by a free afternoon at Lake Bled, and closes with a morning in Ljubljana, one of Europe’s most walkable and architecturally rewarding small capitals.
