FAQs: Snowshoeing in Slovenia
What should I know about Snowshoeing Slovenia?
Slovenia is a small country in Central Europe, surrounded by mountains, forested valleys, turquoise-blue rivers and even a coastline to the Adriatic Sea. Most of your snowshoeing adventures will begin with a flight into the international airport outside of the capital, Ljubljana then a transfer via bus or rail elsewhere in the country.
The Julian Alps, which run from the country’s western border with Italy all the way around the north of the country, are the premier destination for snowshoeing. Containing Triglav National Park as well as a myriad of other destinations, snowshoeing is a great way to see all the varied landscapes of this picturesque small country.
Why should I choose Slovenia for my Snowshoeing adventure?
Excellent exercise
When the weather is not warm enough to go hiking and there’s snow on the ground, snowshoeing is a scenic alternative that aldo gets the blood flowing. While it can be a bit more challenging than hiking, in terms of getting used to walking in the snowshoes, tramping up and down the foothills of Slovenia’s mountains is a great way to get some exercise.
Stunning scenery
In spite of its small size, there is plenty of stunning scenery all over Slovenia. The Julian Alps make for a gorgeous skyline in the north of the country as do the numerous forests, mountains and valleys that lie below them. The villages in which you will stay when visiting the country are also quite remarkable, seemingly coming out of the pages of a fairytale.
Lovely Ljubljana
Just about every trip to Slovenia, begins with a flight into its lovely capital city. Take some time to do a bit of sightseeing in this old city. Go for a tour of the castle, which rises up above the city on a hill in the center and hear the legend about St George and the Dragon.

You’ll find it being doles out at Christmas markets and in pubs.
