Hiking for everyone

Tolminska is interspersed with hiking trails of varying difficulty. We have prepared several themed programs (Roundabouts menu) of varying difficulty, which offer an authentic experience where you go on a journey into the past through traditional crafts and spaces.

Mystical nature

We are located in the Soča valley, approximately where the Soča meets Tolminka and continues until the meeting with Idrijca, and a little earlier and a little further. The magic of nature is given by the many paths and streams that lead to the valley, animals, legends and tales, and the rich history. Interested?

What about the weather?

There is always good time to wander around. We don’t know the seasonal limits, it doesn’t matter if the sun is shining or it’s raining. Snow doesn't bother us either.

Why Ambisontia?

In the 2nd century AD a famous Greek physicist, astronomer and geographer by the name Claudius Ptolemy wrote about a certain Celtic tribe, for which historians today agree that lived in the Soča valley.

"We knew Tolmin before we came. Sabina is a friend of one of the guides. So we just wanted to spend some time near the Soca river. We discovered hidden corners, not known only to locals. We are thinking of next visit already."

"We were in Tolmin last summer. I was exhausted from work. I only had one week of vacation. I didn't think I will be okay afterwards. But I was like reborn after those five days. Sons were thrilled. Water adventures, hikes... Nice people and wonderful nature. Thank you so much."
