💡 Good to know for this plan
- The Vršič pass is open, water is warm enough to raft, and the summer crush hasn't peaked — the sweet spots either side of it.
- Light day: day 3 has one stop and time left over. Local tours and day trips are the way to fill it — each day links to what is bookable in its own town.
