Parking prices and locations
In order to reduce traffic in the most critical areas of Bohinj and to decrease the number of parked cars in the Triglav National Park, especially along the lake basin, we will gradually limit available parking options in this area and provide affordable organised transfer solutions. This is also reflected in higher parking prices around Lake Bohinj. For more affordable parking, choose the cheaper car parks with organised shuttle service to and from the lake shore.
