Ski vacations Kranjska Gora - a resort for families!
Kranjska Gora
The resort of Kranjska Gora, with its 1,403 residents, is located near the Triglav National Park, surrounded by mountains and glacial lakes. The alpine holiday resort in the Northwest of Slovenia is known as a relaxation and winter sports resort. Even though Slovenia is becoming more and more attractive to winter sports fans, the traditional charm of the country has not disappeared. This is in part due to the Nordic Centre Planica, where ski jumping and flying as well as cross-country training and competitions take place based on Slovenian tradition. Eight ski jumping hills can be found in the Nordic Centre Planica in Kranjska Gora.Cross-country fans will certainly get their money's worth in summer as much as in winter: in winter, the outdoor cross-country trails are utilised and in summer, the fun continues in the covered cross-country polygon. Those who are still active in the evening will find an illuminated night slalom obstacle course available to enjoy.
Upper Sava Valley
The Slovenian Upper Sava Valley lies in the northwesternmost region of the country and is therefore near the border triangle of Italy and Austria. When facing north, you can expect to find dreamy views of the Karawanks, whereas to the south, you'll have views of the Julian Alps.Winters are cold in the Upper Sava Valley, leaving nothing to stand in the way of winter sports in the Slovenian Alps. That being said, the slopes on the Karanwanks side enjoy excellent sunshine, which allows for a snowy and sunny experience on the piste.
Winter sports fans in the Upper Sava Valley know to appreciate the ski region of Gorenjska (Upper Carniola), which is composed of 18 municipalities and 17 larger and smaller ski areas. With 30 km of piste, Krvavec is the largest ski area followed by Kobla (23 km of piste), Vogel (22 km of piste) and Kranjska Gora (20 km of piste). The remaining 13 ski areas are also quite manageable and are therefore especially designed for families and beginners.
Even with the Upper Sava Valley being quite idyllic and quiet, you can still expect to find large, lively cities in the area worth visiting. A visit to the city of Kranj, for example, with its approx. 200,000 residents, is definitely worth it - and let's not forget Slovenia's dreamy capital of Ljubljana!
