Some connections to trailheads are also operated as regular public bus services. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Organised transfers and regular bus services are not the same<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>When planning your journey, check whether the connection is an organised transfer in Bohinj or a regular public bus service.<\/li>\n<li>The line to Savica Waterfall and the weekend line to Sori\u0161ka planina are regular Arriva bus services. The Bohinj 24h ticket is not valid on these lines, and the journey must be paid for according to the operator\u2019s current fare schedule. <\/li>\n<li>While line 7 is operating, you can also travel to Sori\u0161ka planina using the organised on-demand transfer, which must be booked through the ToyotaGo app.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bohinj 24h ticket<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Bohinj 24h ticket costs \u20ac2 and includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>unlimited use of organised transfers in Bohinj;<\/li>\n<li>transfers between organised lines;<\/li>\n<li>use for 24 hours from the ticket\u2019s first activation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Purchase your ticket before travelling:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>on promet.bohinj.si;<\/li>\n<li>from ticket machines;<\/li>\n<li>at selected sales points.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Tickets cannot be purchased on the bus.<\/p>\n<p>The Bohinj 24h ticket is not valid on regular Arriva bus services or on trains.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>ToyotaGo on-demand transfers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Advance booking through the ToyotaGo app is required for the following organised transfers:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>line 7: Bohinjska Bistrica\u2013Sori\u0161ka planina;<\/li>\n<li>line 8: Srednja vas\u2013Uskovnica.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Transport is not guaranteed without an advance booking. Before travelling, also check the deadline by which the booking must be made. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Connections with trains and regular bus services<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On some connections, the organised transfer timetables are partly coordinated with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>train arrivals and departures at Bohinjska Bistrica railway station;<\/li>\n<li>regular bus services;<\/li>\n<li>other organised lines in Bohinj.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Always check the entire journey, the time available for transfers and the last connection for your return. We recommend allowing some extra time when changing services, as a delay to one service does not guarantee that the next connection will wait. <\/p>\n<p>You can also use the national journey planner SIMO.SI to check regular bus and railway connections.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>When are the transfers busiest?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>During the summer, services between 9.00 and 10.30 are often the busiest. For longer hikes, we recommend setting off earlier. <\/li>\n<li>The early line 5 departure at 5.30 from Srednja vas \u2013 Seno\u017eeta is generally less busy and is a good option for starting a hike from the Vogar\u2013Blato crossroad in good time.<\/li>\n<li>The number of seats is limited. Once a vehicle is full, it cannot accept additional passengers at intermediate stops, and you will need to wait for the next service. A seat cannot be guaranteed in advance, even on early departures, unless booking is available for that particular line.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I buy a Bohinj 24h ticket on the bus?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No. You must purchase the Bohinj 24h ticket before boarding, either on promet.bohinj.si, from a ticket machine or at a selected sales point. <\/li>\n<li>The ticketing conditions and purchase options of the regular transport operator apply on Arriva services.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is the Bohinj 24h ticket valid to Savica Waterfall?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No. The line to Savica Waterfall is a regular Arriva bus service. The journey must be paid for according to the operator\u2019s fare schedule.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is the Bohinj 24h ticket valid on trains?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No. The ticket is valid only on organised transfers in Bohinj. You need a separate Slovenian Railways ticket for train journeys unless you have a valid Julian Alps: Bohinj Card that includes train travel.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What happens if the bus is full?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A full vehicle cannot accept additional passengers at intermediate stops. You will need to wait for the next departure or find an alternative connection. <\/li>\n<li>We therefore recommend travelling earlier, particularly when planning a longer hike and during the busiest periods of the summer season.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are organised transfers intended for groups?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Organised transfers are intended for individual passengers and are not designed for organised groups.<\/li>\n<li>An organised group is defined as more than 6 people travelling together on lines 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8; more than 8 people travelling together on lines 1, 2 and 3.<\/li>\n<li>Larger groups should arrange private transport with a local transport provider in advance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I take a dog on the bus?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dogs are permitted on organised transfers under certain conditions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the dog must be kept on a lead and wear a muzzle;<\/li>\n<li>it must be clean and dry;<\/li>\n<li>it must lie on the floor during the journey;<\/li>\n<li>smaller animals must be transported in a suitable cage or carrier;<\/li>\n<li>passengers travelling with animals are generally seated in the rear section of the vehicle.<\/li>\n<li>The driver may refuse to transport an animal if it could pose a safety risk or disturb other passengers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Different operators\u2019 rules apply on regular bus services. As a rule, animals are not permitted unless a specific exception applies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where do I change buses in Rib\u010dev Laz?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Some connections require a change at the temporary bus stop in front of the entrance to Hotel Jezero, next to the terrace.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is included in the Julian Alps: Bohinj Card?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Guests staying in Bohinj for at least two nights with a participating accommodation provider can ask their host about obtaining the Julian Alps: Bohinj Card.
