Winter Sports Center
Kranjska Gora is a well-known sports tourist center with an extremely long history and is an outstanding tourist destination all year round. It lies on the edge of the Triglav National Park, surrounded by the many peaks and mountain ranges of the Julian Alps, where you can also try your hand at backcountry skiing and ice climbing.
Thanks to its easy access by car, it is known as one of the best family ski resorts in this part of Europe. You don’t need a gondola to get to it, as it’s practically right next to the slopes, which means you’ll always have everything at your fingertips – from your accommodation to the shops, swimming pools, ice rink, wellness centers, tavernas, and restaurants.
The ski resort is fully artificially snow-covered, so the slopes are always fresh and ready for you. The capacity of the lifts is large and the slopes are very wide, so crowds are rare on the slopes themselves, but if they do occur, head down the other side to Podkoren, where there are virtually never any crowds.
There is something for everyone among the many skiing terrains, whether you are a beginner, recreational skier, snowboarder, or a professional skier, for whom the slopes at Podkoren, which has hosted the Alpine Ski World Championships for more than 50 years, are the perfect place.
The slopes are well connected, so you should take your time to ski/explore the whole ski area.
Below the slopes is the so-called snow beach, where many events take place and you can warm up with a hot cup of tea in one of the many cafés and restaurants. Here your children will find a variety of playgrounds, baby ski lifts, a snow kindergarten, and numerous ski schools offering both group and individual lessons.
You can also ski at night, and there is a floodlit sledding ground and cross-country skiing track in the immediate vicinity.

Buy or rent? There are a multitude of factors to consider: How much will it cost? Does my skill level matter? Will I be able to rent equipment in good condition? Is the cost of getting my own setup worth it? Renting is often best for beginners, people who don’t ski often, those who are still testing the waters, or who are on the fence about investing in the sport. In recent years, the quality of ski equipment for rent has increased greatly, so we definitely recommend it.

Cross-country skiing is becoming more and more popular in Slovenia. There is always enough snow in the high mountains, even when the ski slopes are short of it, and the ski season can be delayed almost until summer, depending on winter snow conditions.
Skiing on untouched snow-covered slopes and ungroomed terrain is a special experience, but it requires a lot of skiing and mountaineering skills. If you are a mountain lover and you love skiing, touring is one of the most unforgettable experiences. You simply have to experience it.
Backcountry is a special type of skiing that uses specially adapted ski equipment.
The skis must be light and have special fittings for walking uphill. They are also equipped with a special notch for attaching the skin which prevents slipping. Boots shall be light and flexible with a non-slip sole and a rough profile. You will also need telescopic poles, a helmet, a first aid kit, and an avalanche protection kit.
