Discover some of the most breathtaking winter hiking trails in Slovenia:
Pokljuka
Start with Pokljuka, a high alpine plateau in the Julian Alps renowned for its pristine winter scenery, which makes it a perfect place to experience a winter idyll. Majestic mountains in the background and snow-covered spruce trees offer an ideal winter wonderland for those seeking peace in nature.
Kranjska Gora and Lake Bohinji
Nearby, two other dreamy winter locations are Kranjska Gora and Bohinj. Kranjska Gora is a great location for downhill and cross-country skiers and those who want to enjoy a nice winter walk. The same goes for Bohinj, where romantic souls can enjoy a full moon walk up to Vogel or a hike with torches around Lake Bohinj.
Soča Valley
Another place to visit in winter is also the Soča Valley. Take a walk retro-style on snowshoes among snow-covered spruces on virgin-white, snow-covered forest paths and enjoy the magical views.
Velika Planina
And last but not least, there’s also Velika Planina, located in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, which is most probably one of the most popular places to go to in winter, thanks, especially to lovely snow-covered shepherd’s huts that create a fairy-tale image of a winter village.
