Luxury holidays in Julian Alps

When to go

Winter brings good snow coverage to this high-altitude area, tempting skiers to its slopes between December and March. June to September is the peak time for those cycling or hiking mountain trails, with May, October and November, much quieter.

Getting there

• Planes

  Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport is the gateway air hub for sojourns in the Julian Alps; from there, the journey by car to the mountains takes 50 to 90 minutes, depending on where you’re heading.

• Trains

  Jesenice is linked by rail to Ljubljana and together these are your nearest options for train access to the Alps.

• Automobiles

  For the freedom to explore this montane region, having your own set of wheels is a good idea.
