Nature, nature, nature

The wonderful Jezersko Valley in the far north of the country borders and continues into the neighbouring Austria. This idyllic valley, which is reminiscent of postcard motifs, is surrounded by the Savinja Alps to the east, while it descends towards the River Kokra to the south.

Jezersko has a network of walking and mountain hiking trails of all levels of difficulty. There are also many climbing routes. In winter, Jezersko offers kilometres upon kilometres of dedicated cross-country skiing trails.

On the way to Jezersko is Preddvor, a small town with a big soul of hospitable locals, which offers every visitor a different way to spend the day. It is particularly well known in paragliding circles, as the thermals here are the best anywhere. Soar above the clouds and take in the spectacular views.
