Active accessible travel
The active winter holiday adventure can be both thrilling and relaxing. While it offers plenty of exciting activities, it also allows you to rest and relax in the unspoiled nature of the Alps. The invigorating week we will spend together can be summed up in two words: sports and fun. Surrounded by the spectacular Julian Alps, we will hike between the authentic mountain villages and enjoy the lovely scenery of Pokljuka plateau. Our experienced instructors will be there to encourage the group to get the most of the holidays: with their enthusiasm and energy, or by teaching the techniques of cross-country skiing. Our guests will be placed accordingly into two groups based on their level of experience. But, there is no need to feel nervous: not only cross-country skiing, but all the activities will be adapted to your skills and physical fitness levels.
Price includes transfers, a stay in a villa or hotel, guided outdoor activities and a lot of fun.

Pokljuka is a pristine example of alpine nature at its best. When it is covered in fresh snow it turns into a true fairy-tale winter wonderland.
