Slovenia Vacation Guide

A tiny corner of Europe with only a touch over two million residents, Slovenia is both an ideal aside to the more expansive glories of nearby Italy, Austria and Croatia, and an appetizing destination in its own right. Considering its diminutive size, Slovenia’s variety is astonishing, with the range of vineyard and mountains, gothic churches and extravagant palaces earning it the nickname ‘Europe in miniature’.

Ljubljana, the lively capital, is presided over by a hilltop castle, and home to nearly everything essential in Slovenia, from the National Gallery to the Trail of Remembrance. It’s the little things that charm, however: the street musicians standing guard on Ljubljana’s bridges, the striking alternative pubs, and the remarkable views over the city and out to the snow-capped mountains from the castle’s windows.

Out in the countryside, though, still more memorable beauty is just waiting to be discovered. There are flower-filled alpine meadows at Logarska Dolina. Then there are the unmoving waters of a delicate mountain lake at Bohinj, sat in the shadow of the magnificent Mt Triglav. Bogojina, meanwhile, is home to a whitewashed church, complete with tiny tower that sits amongst sunflower-strewn valleys and delicate bordering trees.

Exploring the aged local culture is another great way to pass the time, with buildings like the dramatic Predjama Castle, which squeezes into the mouth of a considerable cave, both odd an imposing. Franja Partisan Hospital – the secret World War II lifesaver – still stands tall as a defiant tale of courage, while Pleterje Monastery, an ancient abbey that’s home to monks who’ve vowed to remain silent, feels like the last few centuries never happened. Skocjan Caves are home to a raging underground river, as well as vast underground expanses just waiting to be explored.

All the sites are remarkably close together, and fit in perfectly amongst the more everyday aspects of Slovenian culture, like sampling likrofi, a cheesy ravioli, in Lubjlana’s backstreets, whilst sipping ganje, a potent brandy made from an assortment of fruits. Slovenia might not feature amongst Europe’s classic destinations, but the quality and quantity of its sites invariably astounds.
