One of Europe's quirkier, but useful, journeys is the car train linking Bohinj with Most na Soči.
I know we keep banging on about how you can travel for half an hour in Slovenia and find yourself in completely different terrain, but the car train goes one better: within forty minutes you will have travelled between the alpine ruggedness of the mighty Lake Bohinj, to the Italianate sparkle of the Soča Valley: almost a whole nuther country.
Even better, this is really excellent fun. You simply drive your car onto the train, turn the engine off and the handbrake on... and sit back in your car. Just outside Bohinj the train enters a huge tunnel, which seems to go on for ages... and it's totally dark. Spooky. Following which is the light at the end of the tunnel, and a slightly bouncy journey through some of Europe's best mountain scenery.
Please try to use the service, even if it's just for a day trip: it needs your support!
And like we said, it's great fun. |
