Dog Sledding in Kranjska Gora, Kranjska Gora

Overview

A world-class ski center nestled in the Julian Alps on the border with Austria and Italy, Kranjska Gora is among Slovenia's largest and best-equipped ski resorts. Though looking beyond its slopes there are plenty of alternative winter-related activities to try, including fun and exhilarating dog sledding. 

Not far from the hills of Kranjska Gora, you'll spend a few hours meeting your team of enthusiastic huskies and learning to mush until it's time to be whisked away. You'll drive your personal sled and team of dogs through the breathtaking scenery of snow-capped mountains and woods blanketed in the white stuff. And while dog sledding isn't a traditional pastime of Slovenes, it does make for a beautifully exciting and unique way to experience the countryside.
