Five-Day Camper Van Route Through Slovenia: From Ljubljana to Škocjan Caves

Slovenia, a country of over 20,000 square kilometers, offers diverse opportunities for active recreation: hiking, cycling, climbing, kayaking, rafting, and caving. About 60% of its territory is covered by forests, and more than a third is protected. A motorhome route includes Ljubljana, Lake Bled, Lake Bohinj, the Soča Valley, and the Škocjan Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Tourne Mobil has begun producing motorhomes at the Javor business zone in Pivka, Slovenia. The first motorhome built there was sold to a buyer in Hanover, Germany. The company purchased the eight-hectare site in March 2021. Currently, 42 workers transferred from Vrhnika are employed at the plant, with about five more hires planned. The municipality of Pivka plans further development of the area, including a connecting road and a cycling path.

At the Bertoki exit from Koper, a motorhome stopped due to a breakdown. While waiting for assistance, the occupants set up chairs and drank coffee, prompting safety concerns about the location.

Over the weekend, police in Nova Gorica reported a theft from a camper near Rihemberk Castle, vandalism of a Piaggio three-wheeled scooter, a traffic accident with minor injuries in Bilje, and the detention of a 20-year-old on suspicion of marijuana possession.

After the accident, it was found that the 49-year-old driver had no license, was driving an unregistered car with a counterfeit license plate; the vehicle was seized and charges were filed.
