In Slovenia, the first avalanche information boards have been erected in the Julian Alps. The number of visitors to the mountains in winter has grown dramatically in recent years. Many of them are quite brave and not just extreme athletes. Alpinists, hikers, snowshoers, touring skiers, freeriders go to the hills in winter, and families with small children are among them. But mountains are dangerous. Especially at a time when the hills are whitewashed and the danger of avalanches lurks on them. Too often we ignore this danger, saying that it can't happen to us anymore. Therefore, we do not know what to do if we are actually surprised by an avalanche. These boards can save your life!
Hanging tents are becoming increasingly popular, which is not surprising. You don't need to consider what the ground is like - uneven, rough, wet or damp - you just need a strong branch. In this way, you also prevent the entry of uninvited guests (here we mainly mean golazen, spiders, etc.) into your tent. So next time you're shopping for a tent, consider a hanging tent like the TreePod Camper.

Here are the most beautiful European villages.
Cool and chic. This is how you could describe Epic Sana Algavre, a five-star resort in Portugal.

Here, we are taken to a world of well-being, surrounded by fragrances, flowers, candles and soft stones, where we can restore our sense of inner peace and get rid of stress and tension. A must visit SPA!
