SLOVENIA IN BRIEF

Slovenia: a New Destination to Discover

Slovenia, a green and diverse country between the Alps and the Mediterranean, boasts all the beauties of the Old World. It has a border with Italy, Austria, Hungary and Croatia.When you want to learn about Europe in one stroke, come to Slovenia. In just 20,273 square kilometres there are snow-covered mountains, a sea coast bathing in the Mediterranean sun, beautiful karst caves and thermal springs, narrow white-water canyons and wide slow moving rivers, high mountain lakes and lakes that disappear mysteriously underground at the start of summer, ancient villages and medieval cities, the antique castles and modern entertainment, countless vineyards with top quality wines, and the only primeval forest in Europe. Here in this small and easily covered area, where hundreds of birds migrating south stop briefly and where dozens of unique indigenous plants find their home, more diverse experiences await you all year round than can be found anywhere else.
