During the summer season, a hop-on hop-off circular shuttle service between tourist attractions in the area of the Kras-Carso Geopark will run on a trial basis. The service will run every Saturday and Sunday between 1 June 2024 and 1 September 2024, and will be operated by two vans with eight passenger seats. In addition, the Locally Connected* on-demand service will continue to operate from Monday to Friday.
The main purpose of the service is to connect tourist attractions in the cross-border area of the Kras-Carso Geopark, allowing tourists and locals to move easily between sites without using their own means of transport. This way, it is possible to go for a dip in the sea or to visit a karst cave in case of bad weather. The shuttle services are aimed at both locals and tourists spending their holidays in our area.
The route is circular, running in two loops, which we have named the Green and Blue Routes. The Green Route runs along the eastern part of the Kras-Carso Geopark, starting in Hrpelje. The Blue Route runs along the western part of the Kras-Carso Geopark, starting in Dutovlje. On the Green Route, the van will start from Hrpelje at 9:00 in the morning and 13:00 in the afternoon.
On the Blue Route, the van will start from Dutovlje at 10:00 in the morning and 14:00 in the afternoon.
Timetable:
Passengers can board at the stops indicated on the timetable. If there are no seats available, the driver will not accept any more passengers. The service does not allow advance seat reservation.
An identity document is required to cross the border.
The service is free of charge.
