Hi all, have a trip to Slovenia (will be based in Ljubljana) booked and have been researching, with a lot more success in some areas than others, so thought I'd ask here since information is so sparse in places.
In short which trips are worth doing - in terms of scenery and traction?
From what I've already seen the car train on the Bohinj line looks brilliant so am planning to take a ride on that, I'm also interested in the main line from Ljubljana through Zidani Most but am unsure how far to take it? Is it worth doing all the way to Zagreb or Maribor - or is there anywhere better to stop off on route? Will also probably take a trip either on the line to Koper or the one across the border Pula - does anyone know which is more interesting?
Lastly in terms of fares - is it worth buying an Interrail pass for the journeys above with extra tickets from the border into Croatia as required, or are point to point tickets better (the Interrail pass looks decent value but I'm also concerned about how well it would be recognised/accepted on more local services)?
Many thanks in advance - any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
