Vršič Pass, the highest pass in Slovenia at over 1,600 meters, offers stunning views of the Julian Alps and is an essential route for exploring Triglav National Park. Accessible by car or bus from Kranjska Gora, this pass is best visited between late spring and early autumn, as it often closes in winter due to snowfall. A visit typically takes 2-4 hours, including stops at key points like the Russian Chapel and various lookout spots. It's ideal for solo travelers or small groups with a preference for self-guided exploration, though a guided tour can provide enriching historical context. There is no entry fee, but consider budgeting around €10-20 for parking and incidentals. Drive carefully as the road can be steep and curvy.
