There will be loads of fun in Tolmin on 12th October 2024. This weekend marks the symbolic return of shepherds from the high mountain pastures, where they churned milk in small communities on the mountains all summer, while the cattle munched on the best vegetation between the Alps and the Mediterranean. The people of Tolmin combined the traditional Farmer's Festival with the festival of the Soča Valley culinary delicacy “Frika”, and created FrikaFest. At the two-day event, you can sample unique cheeses from the Soča Valley, with Tolminc cheese at the forefront, as one of the most recognisable local cheeses. On 12th October, the central square and streets of Tolmin will smell like the mountain pastures - of cows, cheese and delicacies.
