Whether you’ve come to Slovenia on a ski holiday or you just happen to be visiting the country and decided to throw some skiing into the mix – either way, you’re in luck: skiing near Ljubljana on a day trip is always a good idea.

Besides its incredible diversity, Slovenia has the cool feature of everything being ridiculously nearby. And ski resorts are no exception. Ljubljana ski resort in Krvavec is a perfect example of teleportation from town to nature in a matter of minutes. Yes, minutes. It’s the closest (15 min drive) ski resort from an international airport and one of the closest (30 min drive) from a European capital city. And a day trip is the best way to get from Ljubljana to Krvavec.

Krvavec is a terrific winter holiday pitstop. It has very good natural and artificial snow conditions, allowing the ski season to stretch into late April. Despite its closeness to Ljubljana, Krvavec is perched amidst a pristine Alpine environment with breath-taking views of the Slovenian landscape. On a sunny day, you’re able to see the country’s highest mountain, Mt. Triglav, and when thick fog descends on the valley, it gives you the illusion of skiing on an island in the clouds. If you’re on a family holiday, Krvavec is buzzing with family-friendly activities. The ski resort prides itself on excellent training grounds for kids and a variety of other activities for beginners, intermediates and pros, including jumps, snowbiking and night sledding.

If you want to be in the center of life and ski, Ljubljana is an excellent destination. This day will begin in Ljubljana, where we’ll pick you up and take you to Krvavec. Once at the ski resort, our guide will take care of everything (ski passes, helping with equipment, etc.), show you the best runs and give you some useful pointers.

If you’re still learning to ski, there’s a professional ski instructor available (guaranteed if booked 2 days in advance). For families with children we also offer a day-care option (from 3 years old) and a ski school for kids. The ski equipment rental package includes everything you need, but you can also opt for renting specific parts only. In other words, let us know and we’ll arrange it.

See you on the slopes!

First off: the hike of approximately 1 hour to the cave can be quite intense. However, we train jiu jitsu daily which has quite some cardio, and for us it was very doable. The hike was fun and had a few very nice viewpoints. After the hike, our amazing guide Anže gave us a good training on how to use the caving/climbing gear to go down steep/vertical slopes and back up. After getting ready, which took about 45 mins, we went into the cave. The cave itself is very large, and had some really nice features of which Anže was very knowledgeable and was able to explain a lot of details. After walking through the cave for a while (15-30 mins?) we arrived at the best part: an abyss of 40m straight down. This was an amazing experience, which was thrilling yet felt very safe. Even my wife, who has fear of heights, enjoyed the experience. She was scared/frozen for a bit, but Anže calmed her down, after which she was able to go all the way to the bottom and enjoyed it a lot! After the descent into the abyss, we climbed back up via another path, and experienced some more amazing parts of the cave. About 3 hours into the trip (including hike and preparation) we exited the cave and hiked back down to our starting point. This took another 30 mins I think. All in all, around 4 hours total for our trip. The experience was really unique, felt safe, but still got the adrenaline pumping!! Both of us agree: 10/10 would do again!

We took the 4-hour "City Bike Tour Ljubljana" with our guide, Andrej. Andrej was fabulous: filled with informative, historical, and humorous details. The ride allowed us to see many parts of Ljubljana in a short time, and Andrej tied it all together. The ride was not too difficult (we are seniors). The lunch stop was perfect (Slovenian charcuterie, plus a pour of local wine): enough to eat, water to drink, and a convenient WC. We recommend this tour (and Andrej) without reservation. We could not hope for a better experience.

This was a truly amazing experience! We really enjoyed our beautiful Seven Lakes Valley hike with an overnight stay at a mountain hut. The alpine scenery of mountains throughout the hike was simply stunning especially the crystal clear emerald lakes, which are absolutely breathtaking! The cosy mountain hut was a lifesaver after a long day’s hike, dinner was hearty and delicious, atmosphere was lively and the beds were warm and comfortable - overall a great experience! What made it all the more enjoyable was being in the safe hands of our brilliant guide, Klemen who was not only very experienced, professional and knowledgeable, but he was also extremely helpful and accommodating. He went out of his way to take care of our needs during the journey. From the start, he was very responsive and proactive in helping us arrange our itinerary in the best way possible to maximise our time there. We also did a private rock climbing session with him after the hike and it was awesome! We definitely enjoyed our time in Slovenia with him and highly recommend going with this company and a private guide like him if you are looking for a customised trip.
