To that end, whenever you visit you will find a huge amount to do there, and the great thing about this country is that winter is as exciting as summer. All across Slovenia you will find stunning natural beauty, and if you are a history buff then there is plenty to see in the form of beautiful churches, engaging museums, and majestic towering castles.

Whilst golf isn’t the first thing that most people think of when they think of reasons to travel to Slovenia, there are actually some superb golf courses around the country, all surrounded by spectacular nature, set among rolling hills and vineyards, below mighty snow-clad peaks, and in the picturesque Karst landscape. If you love golf, it would be remiss to travel to Slovenia and not incorporate at least a couple of rounds during your trip. |
Thermal spas, or Terme as they are called in Slovene, are one of Slovenia's most appealing features and a large and very important component of the tourism industry in the country. There is nothing quite as relaxing as visiting a thermal spa, where warm, healing waters send good health shooting through your body. What's more, a trip to the spa is perfect for any time of year. So, why not include a visit to a thermal spa in your Slovenia itinerary? |
Slovenia has several picturesque small-to-medium ski resorts surrounded by the majestic mountain peaks of the Slovenian Alps in the northern part of the country, most of which are under an hour’s drive from the nearest international airport.
