Bohinjska Bistrica
Bohinjska Bistrica is the largest village and the main service centre of the Bohinj valley. It sits on the Sava Bohinjka river, about 6 km east of Lake Bohinj, at the edge of Triglav National Park. Here you find the valley's railway station, shops, a water park and quieter places to stay than at the lake.
Most travellers pass through on the way to the lake, but the village makes a practical base. It has a stop on the scenic Bohinj railway, the car train through the mountains starts here, and a road leads up to the Pokljuka plateau. The lake, the waterfalls and the mountain walks are covered in the guide to the whole valley.

Când să vizitezi
Summer is warm and best for swimming, cycling and walks, but afternoon storms are common. September is often the most pleasant month, with fewer people. Winter is cold and snowy, and spring is fresh and green in the valley.
The main local event is BistricaFEST, a series of free open-air concerts on summer Saturday evenings. They take place in front of the Joža Ažman Cultural Centre, with art and book markets alongside.

Tomaž Godec Museum is the village's main museum, in the old tannery house of Tomaž Godec, a local leather worker, sportsman and pioneer of Bohinj tourism. It covers the valley's history and shows how hides were turned into leather. A large part covers the two world wars, including the exhibition "Bohinj 1914–1918". Allow about 1.5 hours.
Bohinjska Bistrica railway station is the main stop on the scenic Bohinj railway between Jesenice and Nova Gorica, built in the early 1900s. Just south of the village, the line enters the 6.3 km Bohinj tunnel under Kobla. A car train also uses the tunnel, so you can cross to the Soča side without driving over the mountains.
Bohinj Water Park, in the village centre, has indoor pools, water slides, a large sauna area and wellness treatments. It is a good choice for families on a rainy day.
Church of St Nicholas is the village parish church, next to the local cemetery and a short walk from the main road.
Kobla is the mountain right above the village. At its foot, the short Kozji hrbet ski slope has a T-bar lift and night skiing in winter. For a larger ski area, go to Vogel above the lake.
The Pokljuka plateau lies about 25 minutes north by car. It is a high, forested plateau with mountain pastures, cross-country ski trails and the biathlon centre at Rudno polje, which hosts World Cup races.
