Sunday 18th June Bistra - Postojna EPW day 17

The guide says today will be TOUGH, yes it was written in capitals....
I guess they weren't wrong, it was very tough but at the same time one of the nicest days we have had. Well the morning was awesome. 


From the accomodation, we returned to the arches over the road and the beautiful old monestary and turned right and went up hill. The views as we rose were fabulous and we essentially climbed uphill for about 2 hours. The rest of the morning was spent still the forest where it was cool.

Of course no rest spots and definitely no cafes,,,but we did finally come across a bar in the little town of Laze. That was after crossing over an incredibly noisy motorway and bringing us back into civilisation with a bit of sensory overload. It was also after approx 5 hours of walking and clocking up about 20 odd km's..

That was it.... 
We spent the rest of the afternoon dodging high speed motorcycles and cars on a fairly major road as we walked along the verge.
Totally hot and  uninspiring walk along bitumen into the town of Postojna.

Tonight we stay at a youth hostel, which is really very nice.
Dinner in the little square, we had the best Angus beef cheeseburgers we have ever tasted !!!!!
