The color of the Soca River is mesmerizing.

And the beauty of the Soca River Valley will take your breath away.

This area of Slovenia — between Bovec in the northwest and Most na Soci in the southeast — is often overlooked by travelers a making quick trip to this little country.

My advice?

Slow down and spend some time exploring the Soca River Valley.

You'll find trails, hills, mountains, waterfalls, charming towns, loads of WWI history and yes, an absolutely stunning river to kayak on or fish in — or just gaze upon.

The Soca River Valley is not to be missed.
