SLOSlovenia: The green playground of Europe
The Alps, the Mediterranean, the Karst and the Pannonian Plain are exceptional locations for exercising outdoors in nature. All these regions can be experienced in Slovenia, the world's first green destination, and the only country in Europe that combines such diversity. You can walk or cycle Slovenia from one end to another or stop and exercise in your own way in this exquisite green corner of the world.
The land is perfect for hiking amidst the incredibly diverse landscapes. It surprises with vistas across hills and valleys, ascents to Alpine peaks rising more than two thousand metres high and descents into Karst caves that lie more than 1,500 metres below sea level. Its image is green. You are visiting one of the most forested countries in Europe.

Water demonstrates its wealth of features here. The sea, lakes, rivers and streams make your wish for different forms of recreation. Adrenaline experiences and relaxation come true. Droplets sprayed from waterfalls refresh passers-by and drinking waters quench the thirst of the weary traveller. Mineral and thermal waters replenish strength for moving and exercising.

The air changes the appearance of this green country. In every season, it brings a different character to the views from the heights. Air masses and currents thrill those who sail among the clouds, birds or treetops.
