A diverse landscape with a series of towering summits that connect Slovenia with Italy and Austria. Rivers and valleys flowing from the Alps to the Mediterranean. Roads that bring people together! Telling new stories every day.
So beautiful, so simple! PIECE OF CAKE! Nowhere else are the towering rock faces so near, almost within arm’s reach; few places are so loved by kings, presidents and artists from all over the globe. Where else are the areas of unspoilt nature so near and welcoming? Slovenia’s Alps are an accessible luxury, captured in the idyllic pastoral life of the past, the loveliness of medieval towns, lucky charms forged in old-time foundries, and the rhythm of the world’s most frequently played instrumental song. So simple. So close.
TAKE YOUR PICK! Take your pick. Go to different places, do something different every day. Go for the rainbow!
Welcome!
