Thinking of heading to Slovenia last week of July, first week of August with the kids (10 and 12).
Background - went there pre kids in May I think and had a fantastic 2 weeks - Soca rafting, summit of Triglav, gorge walks, waterfalls, canyoning trip, Bled, Lake Bohinj, stayed at Laze and did the tourist caving trips and the Idrija mercury mines. So we're quite familiar with whats available.
Want to go back again with kids but realise it might be peak season.
Same happened last year with Corsica, been before out of season for our honeymoon, but went last summer avec les enfants and holiday was marred by everywhere being totally jam packed and over crowded. Not to mention too hot (35 at night in a tent is not my cup of tea).
Question is, is it going to be the same for Slovenia, and if so, where to avoid and are there some slightly quieter areas to get away from the hoards.
Tick lists would be Via Ferrata (done a few in France with the kids). Rafting, canyoning. Potentially a night in a refugio on Triglav somewhere. (expect these are fully booked all the time).
Maybe some tourist caves in Postojna, and maybe a guided 'wild' trip if they're easy enough to organise.
Will be camping.
Thinking of flying to Venice and driving in, as it seems easier/cheaper than flying to Ljubljana/Trieste.
Any advice welcomed.
