BIKE & TASTE | Half Day | 155€ | Discover the rich cheese heritage of BohinjValley by bike. Alpine dairy farming and related cheese-making have a long tradition in Bohinj. The natural landscape, characterized by high alpine pastures, long winters, and short summers, defined local life, leading communities to focus primarily on cattle raising (cows, goats, horses, and sheep) and dairy farming.

At the Alpine Dairy Farming Museum, you’ll discover the rich history of Slovenian traditional cheese production and see how these age‑old methods have evolved to meet modern practices.

You will also visit a dairy farm and discover various dairy products, including the regional speciality, Mohant cheese. This very piquant cheese has gained popularity beyond the borders of the Bohinj region.

Lake Bohinj lies in the heart of Triglav National Park and is often described as one of Europe’s best‑kept secrets and a must-see attraction in Slovenia. This lake is the largest natural lake in Slovenia, and it is renowned for its picturesque stone bridge and the Church of St. John the Baptist. Its dramatic alpine scenery, crystal-clear glacial water, and serene atmosphere feel untouched by time.

The Alpine Dairy Farming Museum in Stara Fužina presents the story of herding and alpine dairy farming in Bohinj as a way of life and coexistence with nature in an alpine environment. It has a small collection related to Alpine dairy farming. The museum was once a cheese dairy itself. It features four rooms showcasing a reconstructed 1849 shepherd’s hut, historical photographs, and numerous original cheesemaking tools, including cheese presses, wooden butter moulds, and copper vats. Life on the Bohinj mountain pastures is presented through various artefacts that reveal a wealth of ethnological heritage in the Bohinj region.

Cheese production in Bohinjis one of the oldest and most culturally significant alpine dairy traditions in Slovenia, known especially for Bohinj cheese, Mohant, and the summer‑pasture cheesemaking that still follows centuries‑old methods. It remains a living tradition today, practiced on mountain pastures and in local dairies, and is a major part of Bohinj’s identity.

• We recommend visiting the 12th Cheese and Wine Fest in Bohinjska Bistrica on 24. October, 2026. It’s a standout culinary event featuring wine and cheese tastings complemented by exceptional dishes crafted by local chefs. In addition to good food and drink, there will also be live music to enjoy. Entrance fee 10€ per person (no registration required). Location: Danica Sports Hall. 

The village of Studor in Bohinj is best known for its impressive double hayracks, a unique architectural feature that greets visitors at the village entrance. Studor is also home to the Oplen House Museum, a beautifully preserved traditional farmhouse with an original black kitchen that offers insight into rural life in Slovenia. Nearby, a local ranch breeds Icelandic horses, adding to the village’s charm and appeal. Although hayracks, known as kozolci in Slovene, were originally built for drying and storing hay, their artistic craftsmanship has made them an iconic element of Slovenian vernacular architecture and a symbol of national identity.
