As a green destination, Slovenia is a perfect choice for an activity holiday. You can choose from a wide selection of hiking, cycling and rafting organised tours, or you can take long walks on numerous walking and biking trails. Here are a few ideas where to go for sports holiday in Slovenia:
Hiking You can choose from more than 10.000 km of marked walking and hiking trails all over the country. The best areas for walking are: – Julian Alps and Triglav National Park with the highest mountains in Slovenia offer numerous possibilities for hiking. The views are breathtaking wherever you go. Check my favourite places: Bohinj lake, Pokljuka plateau (an excellent spot in winter for cross country skiing), Bled Vintgar Gorge, – Velika planina near Kamnik, – Pohorje plateau in the East of Slovenia, – Logarska valley in the Kamnik Alps, – Hilly region of Dolenjska.
Cycling and mountain biking In the breathtaking Alpine valleys, around the misterious glacial lakes, over the sunny vineyards hills, through the picturesques villages, with a guide or on your own: – Bled and Bohinj lakes, – Mojstrana – Kranjska gora, – Karst region, – Adriatic coast, – by the Kolpa river in the South. Look for more ideas and offers to join a group of cyclists or contact us if you need some help to organise your cycling trip.
Rafting, kayaking, canoë – Emerald valley of the Soca river, – Sava Bohinjka river, – Krka river in the South-East.
