Krvavec is one of Slovenia’s most popular ski and mountain resorts, only 25 km from Ljubljana and 8 km from the airport. A cable car runs all year. In winter its pistes, between 1,450 and 1,971 metres, total 30 km, with a ski school, rental, a snow park, a children’s area and night tobogganing; in summer there is a treetop adventure park, mountain go-karts, mountain biking and more. Our advice: on a clear day the views over the Ljubljana basin are superb. See also our sister guide, the ULTIMATE Ski Resorts Guide.
