Welcome to the sunny side of the Alps


Boasting one of the highest standards of living in the world, contemporary Slovenia is proof that small is beautiful. Covering just over 20,000 km² - or roughly ¼ the size of Ireland - the country punches well above its weight when it comes to natural beauty: mountains covered in snow and ski resorts by winter, beaches and rocky bays good for sunbathing and sailing by summer. Add in the deceptively Lilliputian, almost fairytale capital of Ljubljana , complete with castles, palaces and brightly painted houses, and you have a destination good to go all year round.
