“The Kingdom of the Seven Triglav Lakes is a land that does not know how to smile, so deeply serious have the natural forces designed its face and chosen its colours.”
With these words, the famous mountaineer Julius Kugy described the Valley of Triglav Lakes where the national park was born and later grew to its present size.
838 km2, 25 settlements, 2,200 residents
