Solo Female Travel in Slovenia

Solo travel experience

Slovenia is by far one of the safest countries, especially for solo female travelers. Reason; well, basically barely anyone around and people leave each other alone, but will help you when you ask. I visited Ljubljana and went to an abandoned hotel, which was super cool. Then I went to Kranj, stayed in a hostel with view on nature and visited Lake bled!! You can walk through cities, but if you wanna visit other towns you should use Flixbus, Train or Arriva Bus. Super underrated country, nature was 10/10 and it is cheap

Solo travel experience

It’s a cozy and cheap but gorgeous version of Switzerland. Highly recommend spending a week of two to explore all regions by car or camper etc. People are mostly chill but not particularly cheerful or nice.

I absolutely loved Slovenia (though we only were in Ljubljana and I can’t wait to see other parts of the country) People were super nice to us and I didn’t feel unsafe at all There is so many cute things to do in Ljubljana (can’t remember the name but there is a squatt that is so cool too)

It's the most amazing country I have been to yet! I felt so safe, the people were absolutely lovely 😍 The views were insane, the water was so blue! There was so much to see, and I just loved every minute of it 💗

Slovenia is such a beautiful country. The people are incredibly friendly and it has some of the most beautiful mountains views and waterfalls I have ever seen!! I feel this is a country for everyone: you like hiking? Triglav national park is your place. You like spa breaks? There are hundreds of thermal spas around the country. You like sight seeing? Lots of historical sights for you to visit !! The only downside is the food. I must say in bled (where I stayed) the food wasn’t that great. However when we visited the city there were loads of cute cafes and nice restaurants there

Solo travel experience

I visited Ljubljana first, and then I stayed in a hostel near Lake Bled, setting out each day to explore Bohinj, Vintgar Gorge, and Bled. The people are incredibly friendly. I felt completely safe at all times, even though I didn't really venture out in the evenings. Overall, it was an amazing trip. If you love natural beauty and hiking, add Slovenia to your wish list.

Solo travel experience

I spent 18 days alone in Slovenia and felt very safe. I stayed in Ljubljana for 3 nights, then rented a car and went to Lake Bled, then to Lake Bohinj, Kranjska Gora, Bovec, to the coast to Piran, and back to Ljubljana, with many stops along the way. I met the kindest people and saw some of the most beautiful landscapes.

Solo travel experience

I really fell in love with Slovenia. I was there last fall in Maribor, and this summer I went to Bled and Vintgar Gorge. The prices were affordable, and for what I paid, I received good quality. People were nice and friendly, and the nature there was amazing.

Solo travel experience

One of the safest and most friendly countries I have visited in Europe, plus it's relatively cheap and not as crowded as other main "tourist" attractions. We stayed in Bled and visited the Vintgar Gorge, and I also spent a night in Ljubljana and made a day trip to the caves in Postojna and Predjama Castle. Both of these cities can be explored on foot, and in Ljubljana, I used the TaxiMetro app when needed. As a solo female, I felt very safe there.

Group travel experience

I just came back from Slovenia. Was there with my best female friend for 10 days. We were in Ljubljana and Bovec. Ljubljana is capital (small capital of 2-3 hundreds people) but very cute and bike friendly. Bovec is small town surrounded with mountains and incredible nature. This is a hub for outdoorsy people, you can practice plenty of activities: trekking, hiking, climbing, ferratas, rafting, kayaking, canyoning, cycling etc. What is the most important are people and hospitality. We’ve never met anywhere in the world so amazing and kind people like here.

Lake Bled is absolutely beautiful! You should also visit the Vintgar Gorge when you're there - it's located a few kilometers from Bled and is absolutely stunning. Also, Lake Bohinj is wonderful and much quieter than Bled, with a beautiful waterfall at the far end (Slap Savica). As for caves, Skocjan is very interesting, or you can go to Postojna and combine a cave tour with a trip to Predjama Castle (it was built in a cave and is amazing!). If you have time, take the bus through the mountains to Bovec, there are more gorges and outdoor activities there (for example, the longest zipline routes in Europe!). The Vrsic mountain pass offers amazing views and is worth visiting, even if you don't want to use the zipline!
