If we are not lucky enough to have a long vacation or a week of skiing, we can not worry. Even one-day trips count and they can be even more adventurous. Short but sweet, they say. Let's see what the snowy landscapes have to offer.
Winter trips can be just as magical as summer escapes to the sea. Let's see what we can do in winter.
Snowshoeing on pristine white snow
Winter activities are not only skiing and snowboarding. Hiking in the hills and mountains can be a unique recreation in winter, which will serve you with wonderful views and reveal wonderful corners. Unspoiled nature can be explored day or night in the Triglav National Park, around Bohinj, around Bled or Pokljuka by snowshoeing. If you haven't heard about this interesting type of sport yet – snowshoeing is walking on the surface of a pristine snow cover, and one thing is for sure: the first time you try it, it's by no means the last!
Sledding
From Stol in Kobari, along a three-kilometer track in Trenta, from Ljubelje. Sledding in broad daylight or under a gentle starry sky is an unforgettable day trip that will undoubtedly not be the only one. There are more than enough tobogganing providers, but you can also go to the toboggan run in your own organization. Popular toboggan runs can be found in Ljubelje, Jezerské, Velika Planina, Krvavec, Mangart, Rogla, in Gozd Martuljek and Kranjska Gora, and tobogganing adventures are also organized in some places. Don't miss the wild ride along the snowy forest paths from the peak to the valley.

Ice climbing
Although ice climbing is not for everyone, the brave and a bit more trained can experience it on the frozen waterfalls in Log pod Mangart and Trenti. According to the providers in Bovec, the difficulty of climbing depends on the route, so beginners or very experienced mountaineers can climb. But never head over the falls! It is recommended to take a guide and appropriate equipment, good company, warm clothes and tea with you on a one-day trip.
Snow rafting
Fans of rafting can try something even more adrenaline this time. Snow rafting in winter will ensure that adrenaline and pleasure flow through your blood on a one-day winter trip. Pac Sports organizes it in various locations around Slovenia, in the Bohinjska dolina before Bohinjska Bistrica and on Vogl. You can experience the adrenaline raft down the hill with your loved ones, as up to three people can go in the raft. An hour and a half or two hours of pure winter madness can also be experienced in the evening hours, as they also provide snow rafting in the light of torches.
