The Soča runs turquoise the whole way from the Julian Alps to the Italian border, and the valley around Bovec and Kobarid is the country's adventure centre: rafting, canyoning, kayaking and paragliding. It is also the ground of the Isonzo Front, and the Kobarid museum and outdoor trails explain the mountain war in detail. Roads over the Vršič pass connect it to Kranjska Gora in summer.
