Poti miru v Posočju

In 2007, the outdoor museums and the most important remains and memorials of the Isonzo front in the Upper Soča region were interconnected into the Walk of Peace. It is dedicated to the memory of numerous victims of the First World War. Trekking along the about 100 km long Walk of Peace, or only along a part of it, offers to every visitor an active rest in the wonderful, tranquil, unspoiled nature marked with the river Soča, the world of medium-high and high mountains, flocks of sheep and goats, and still active alpine pastures in summer, and the history of the First World War. The walk starts at Log pod Mangartom at the entrance to the mine shaft named Štoln, and ends at the outdoor museum Mengore near Most na Soči. It is divided into five sections and trekking along each of them can be done in one day. It runs past military cemeteries and chapels, Kluže Fortification, outdoor museums, the Koritnica gorge, the Soča gorge, the idyllic mountain alps, the Kozjak fall, two charnel houses, at Kobarid and Tolmin, a memorial church of the Holy Spirit on the Javorca plateau, the Tolminka gorge, etc.

At the seat of the Foundation, the Walk of Peace Information Centre was established in the same year, and the guide service operates within its frame. Besides giving information, the Centre also provides guides to visitors for guided tours along the Walk of Peace and through the outdoor museums; and an exhibition is staged in its rooms. Visitors can get selected handicraft and applied arts souvenirs there, made by local people.

In collaboration with the Public Agency SPIRIT Slovenia, (Javna Agencija SPIRIT Slovenija), Sector of Tourism, and the Agency for Tourism of Friuli-Venezia Giulia (Agenzia Turismo Friuli Venezia Giulia), Slovenian and Italian tourist agencies and other providers have prepared several cross-border tourist packages along the Walk of Peace from the Alps to the Adriatic.
