Slovenia is located in the heart of Europe and is a serious hidden gem of a holiday destination. Its natural beauty really cannot be overstated and it was the first country in the world to be declared a green destination based on the Green Destinations Criteria. Lodged between the Alps, Mediterranean Sea, the landscape is made up of snow-capped peaks, turquoise rivers, a stretch of languorous Adriatic coastline, storybook towns and lush forests. In fact, the whole country looks like something conjured from a fairytale. Just contact us at Easy Reserve and our team of experts will help you find the perfect vacation rental in Slovenia so that you can begin exploring this great beauty for yourself.
You can, of course, enjoy the natural gems of the land. It is a perfect place to go skiing, walking and hiking in the mountains, cycling, rafting, horseback riding, ballooning, caving and canyoning. If that sounds a little too active, you can head to the coast and bathe in the azure waters or on the white beaches. If you are more interested in the manmade, there are unbelievable feats of architecture and truly incredible attractions to discovers. Take Lake Bled, for example, with forests and mountains framing the water and, at the lake's centre, an island with a tiny baroque chapel and dramatically looming castle, making for the most extraordinary picture. Likewise, you will find Venetian harbour towns, the rustic Hungarian-style farmhouses of Prekmurje, gothic splendour displayed in the likes of the church of Gorenjska and the art nouveau beauties of Ljubljana.
The food is a blend of the cuisines of Italy, Austria, Hungary and the Balkans and generally made from only fresh and locally sourced ingredients. Slovenian wine, meanwhile, is an unsung hero with whites and reds to choose from. Throughout the country, there are a variety of attractions and things to see and do, as well: Logar Valley Landscape Park with its splendid Rinka Waterfall; the immense Cathedral of St Mohor and Fortunat in Gornji Grad; the giant Snežna jama Cave; the magical Šalek Valley; and the lively coastal town of Piran.
Beautiful, intriguing and populated by a kind, self-confident and welcoming people, Slovenia is a destination that captures hearts and makes return visitors of those who go there. Be sure to explore this hidden gem of Europe for yourself!
