5. SNOWSHOEING
The heavy snowfall of recent winters has made snowshoeing a popular activity in the Soca valley and this activity is a fantastic way to explore out of the way places in this magical winter wonderland. Walking with snowshoes is a primal mode of motion through a snowed-in landscape, as these simple yet effective tools were used by primitive tribesmen as a means of hunting animals thousands of years ago. Nowadays, snowshoes are used as recreational tools providing an effective means to walk in a winter environment and enjoy a snowy landscape. Our guided tours are customised to suit the fitness and requirements of each group and include day and night trips (2-3 hrs) to full day trips (4-5 hrs). Our trips are run in the valleys of Loska Koritnica, Zadnica, Zapoden, Tamar and Krnica.

- Mandatory personal equipment: Appropriate clothing and footwear for winter conditions.
6. SLEDGING
Whether by day or night, sledging from the road below Mangart; one of Slovenia’s most beautiful mountains, provides a really exciting and safe way of discovering the natural winter delights of this winter wonderland. By day we can take in the magnificent vistas from this beautiful mountain; or by night it offers a different experience as we guide our sledges under a vast starry sky with only the moon and a headlamp to light up the way.
