Bus Hire in Bovec, Slovenia

The Soca river runs an almost impossible shade of turquoise-green through Bovec's valley, a colour caused by fine limestone particles suspended in glacial meltwater, and it has turned the town into Slovenia's clear whitewater rafting capital. Rafting companies line the main street through summer, sending groups down grade-two and grade-three rapids that draw paddlers from across Europe.

The same valley saw some of the bloodiest fighting of the First World War, the Soca Front, known to Italians as the Isonzo Front, where Austro-Hungarian and Italian forces fought twelve major battles between 1915 and 1917. Open-air museum trails and preserved trenches around Bovec now mark that history, a quiet contrast to the rafting crowds on the river below. In winter, the Kanin cable car reaches Slovenia's highest ski resort directly above the town.
