Travel to Slovenia

Overview

Towns

At first sight, undisturbed nature and silence are the impressions Slovenia leaves. With a second look, it is clear that Slovenia is a country in motion, a country for sports and leisure activities. In this green oasis of Europe you will find a variety of cultural sights, ranging from Roman monuments to medieval fortresses and venerable Cloisters. Slovenia has picturesque villages and cities, some of which are enchanted by medieval cities. Natural works of art made of limestone are the over 6000 stalactite caves and cave-corridors in Slovenia, that have been developed and made accessible for tourists. The country at the foot of the alps offers a varied holiday, in every season of the year.

The secret of the Slovenian healing springs was already discovered in the distant past and are documented in writings dating back to the 12 century and up to the Roman excavations. The 15 spas and swimming centres that are filled with thermal and mineral water, offer water fun and pure relaxation, away from the noise and hectic of the city.

The powerful, yet accessible Julischen Alps connect four beloved holiday towns: Bled, Kranjska Gora, Bohinj and Bovec with the impressive Soca Valley. The well equipped tourism centres attract alpine skiers, ski tour takers, cross-country skiers, snowboarders and sledders in the winter. In the summer marked trails bring joy to the many hikers and almost everywhere there are biking possibilities ranging from anything for the leisurly biker to the professional cyclist. The rapids in the Soca and other rivers are a challenge for kayakers, canoers and rafters. For horse friends there are riding clubs all over Slovenia. Golf is becoming one of the more popular leisure activities. Eight golf courses and many practive ranges welcome golfers.

The Slovenian coast, measured right at 47 km long, is overgrown with rich vegetarian and is perfect for lovers of sun, beach and ocean, and is a pleasant starting point for sailers, surfers and divers. The riches of Slovenia lie within its variety!
