  • JULIAN ALPS TRIGLAV NATIONAL PARK 2The Julian Alps
    1 JULIAN ALPS TRIGLAV NATIONAL PARK www.slovenia.info 2The Julian Alps The Julian Alps are the southeast- ernmost part of the Alpine arc and at the same time the mountain range that marks the border between Slo- venia and Italy. They are usually divided into the East- ern and Western Julian Alps. The East- ern Julian Alps, which make up approx- imately three-quarters of the range and cover an area of 1,542 km2, lie entirely on the Slovenian side of the border and are the largest and highest Alpine range in Slovenia. The highest peak is Triglav (2,864 metres), but there are more than 150 other peaks over 2,000 metres high. The emerald river Soča rises on one side of the Julian Alps, in the Primorska re- gion; the two headwaters of the river Sava – the Sava Dolinka and the Sava Bohinjka – rise on the other side, in the Gorenjska region. The Julian Alps – the kingdom of Zlatorog According to an ancient legend a white chamois with golden horns lived in the mountains. The people of the area named him Zlatorog, or “Goldhorn”. He guarded the treasures of nature. One day a greedy hunter set off into the mountains and, ignoring the warnings, tracked down Zlatorog and shot him. Blood ran from his wounds Chamois The Triglav rose and fell to the ground. Where it landed, a miraculous plant, the Triglav rose, sprang up. Zlatorog ate the flowers of this plant and its magical healing powers made him invulnerable. At the same time, however, he was saddened by the greed of human beings.

Thenew guidebook will show you the most beauti- ful hiking trails around Slovenia and tips on how to prepare for hiking, what to experience and taste, where to spend the night, and how to treat yourself after a long day of hiking. Save the dates of the biggest hiking celebrations in Slovenia – the Slovenia Hiking Festivals. Indeed, Slovenians walk always and everywhere. We are proud to celebrate 120 years of the Alpine Associati- on of Slovenia, the biggest volunteer organisation in Slovenia, responsible for maintaining mountain trails. Themountaineering culture and excitement about the beauty of Slovenia’s nature connects all generations, all Slovenian tourist farms and wine cellars. Experience this joy and connection between people in motion. This is the beginning of themighty Alpine mountain chain, where the mysterious Dinaric Alps reach their heights, and where karst caves dominate the subterranean world. There arerolling, wine-pro- ducing hills wherever you look, the Pannonian Plain spreads out like a carpet, and one can always sense the aroma of the salty Adriatic Sea.

  • Nordic Centre Planica and Kranjska Gora
    Ljubljana Summer School 2019 Ljubljana Summer School 2019 Saturday, 20 July Nordic Centre Planica and Kranjska Gora The Planica Valley has been a very significant place for Nordic sports since the thirties of the last century, when it claimed the first ski jumping world record and when it also gave birth to a new discipline called ski flying. Since then, the ski jumping and ski flying competition in Planica became one of the national symbols of Slovenia. In 2007 the valley became the site of a major renovation, which lasted until the year 2015 and which brought to life the Nordic Centre Planica – a modern Nordic skiing complex that boasts one ski flying hill, seven ski jumping hills, a cross-country skiing tracks and various summer activities like zip-line on the ski flying hill (it lasts 40 seconds and is the steepest in the world). The Nordic Centre received the Biennial Maks Fabiani Award for outstanding works in urban, regional and spatial planning. You will hear all about it on our guided tour. Later on we will head off to Kranjska Gora, to the beautiful small alpine lake Jasna which is surrounded by beautiful views and trails. The various walking paths around the lake provide fairy-tale locations for photographers to capture the beauty of this hidden Slovenian gem in all its glory. The new features are new beach areas and better access for swimmers / sunbathers, newly opened bar / ice cream parlour and a new three-tiered wooden diving platform, resembling a castle turret. If you find time, you can take a walk to visit the town of Kranjska gora (located 2km from the lake).
