The Karst region is where I went on my third hike in Slovenia. We climbed to Slavnik (1028M).

On Sunday Burja was mild to moderate in strength, making our hike up Slavnik very refreshing for me, until we stepped out onto the high plateau. Then, although I was still very much enjoying the wind, my companions were forced to stop and put on weatherproof jackets, hats and gloves!

I have to admit there was a few gusts up at the top that made me grab for some support, to avoid getting blown over!
The views from the mountain hut at the top were spectacular. Slovenia has 46 km of coast and from where we were standing we could see all of it including some of Italy as well. Far off in the distance was a sailing race of over 2000 vessels. From where we were standing the boats looked like tiny stars in the Milky Way the way they were distributed along the coast.

It was a pretty, sunny hike.

Afterwards we headed over to the coast for some lunch and sightseeing. More to follow!
A Slovenian Inukshuk!
