In the summer months a BBQ grill offers alfresco dining in the National Park. Imagine a holiday BBQ on a warm summer's evening surrounded by the peaks of the impressive Julian Alps. The best thing is that you don't have to drive home afterwards -unlike most of the visitors to the National Park!

The Gorenjska region
It is in the heart of the Julian Alps and is ideal for winter skiing and summer outdoor holidays. We have a variety of mountain and cross country ski trails right on your doorstep. Bohinj Ski Chalet is ideal for skiing at Vogel as it is only five minutes walk away. You can beat the crowds and maximise your time on the slopes! Bohinj Chalet is situated on the western edge of lake Bohinj and offers a peaceful mountain retreat for your holiday. Unlike most of the visitors to the National Park, you can remain in its calm and spectacular surroundings for your entire holiday -if you so wish!
The Bohinj / Triglav National Park area
Lake Bohinj (4.5 km long) is a dramatic glacial lake within Triglav National Park. Ukanc is a small village on the westernmost southern shore and is five minutes drive from the entrance to the lake at Ribcez Laz. Five minutes walk from the chalet is the Zlatorog, which offers a restaurant and a traditional alpine bar. There are also several local restaurants in Ukanc waiting to be discovered some are just a minute's walk from the front door. The location is ideal for those interested in outdoor winter (skiing) and summer activities (horse riding, walking, fishing, kayaking, adventure sports) and wish to explore the Julian Alps in a peaceful scenic setting. These can be arranged locally.
For skiing, the chalet is 500m distance from the Vogel Ski Centre above Ukanc, and is accessible by cable car. Vogel offers 26 km of ski slopes and cross-country runs. With runs up to 1800 m altitude, the season can last until early May.
The area offers an excellent range of walks to suit all abilities following forest trails or for the more strenuous into the Julian Alps and Triglav. A walk around Lake Bohinj is recommended and should take between 3 and 4 hours. The chalet is also an ideal location for those who wish to explore Bled and the surrounding area (e.g. Vintgar gorge or Pokljuka) but to remain in a peaceful unspoilt setting. There is a bus station at Ukanc with hourly buses to Bled and Ljubljana via Bohinjska Bistrica.
Every year on the second Sunday in September, Ukanc hosts the Cow’s Ball (Kravji Bal). Traditionally it marks the return of the cows to the valley after spending the summer on high pasture and offers the visitor an insight in Slovenian folk music and dancing and typical local cuisine. Bonfire Night (Kresna Noc) is celebrated on the Sunday closest to the Feast of the Assumption on the 15th August. Candlelit boats are launched into Lake Bohinj from which there is a firework display late into the summer night. New Year offers a further firework spectacle for the visitor.

Guestbook for Bohinj Chalet
"Thanks again for all your help and thoroughness in providing information and instructions. The chalet was perfect for our needs. It was great to just enjoy the beautiful surroundings. We did plenty of walking and kayaking...." B. Smith April 2007.
Everything was magic. What a stroke of genius to obtain a chalet in such a location. The instructions were comprehensive and well illustrated. The library of DVDs was great for the evenings and the one spell of bad weather. J Cowe May 2007
I just wanted to drop you a note and thank you for the use of your chalet. It is a lovely unit in a truly enchanting area. I am originally from Colorado, and am used to beautiful scenery, but this was truly something I was unprepared for. Lovely country, tremendous scenery. And your chalet is really quite charming, you are fortunate to have it. H. Keyon July 2007
