Closest ski centre is Vogel.
In the winter Slovenia changes from a beautiful, sunny country with great mountains to a beautiful, sunny country with great mountains and SNOW. A terrific ski holiday destination. Completely different in feel to the mega-resorts throughout the rest of Europe, Slovenia has a very relaxed, family friendly atmosphere. Bags are left in a pile at the bottom of the slope to be picked up on the way home, queues (if there are any) are jovial and chatty, there are more locals skiing than tourists and no distinction is drawn between the two. While you may not find the same number of runs available as you would in Chamonix or Les Tois Vallees, you also won't be asked to pay twenty Euros for a coke and a slice of pizza. The food on the hill is good, filling and no more expensive than anywhere else in the country. Ski school is much cheaper than elsewhere, particularly the one-on-one lessons which cost around €27 per hour.
Unlike many destinations in the Alps, you won't spend half your holiday on bus transfers. Distances here are short; Ljubljana's Brnik airport is just 30 minutes from us and at this small, modern airport it will take you less than 30 minutes from touch-down to driving away! You also do not need to hire a car; we can organise all transfers for you.
