Winter in Slovenia is a special place to be. There’s an untamed feel about he experience. The local resort of Kanin is a 5 minute drive from Chalet Soca, plus the added bonus of Sella Nevea in Italy, Tarvisio in Italy and a little further afield but Nassfeld Austria. All fun resorts with plenty to go at.
Sella Nevea is linked to Kanin, and is home to a large freeride/touring community. There are slopes for beginners, but these resorts come alive above the lift lines. Heliskiing, refuge sleep overs are all open, possible and affordable on this quiet boarder between Italy and Slovenia.
Tarvisio is linked to Mount Lussari which is the most beautiful mountain top village. Its tiny cobble street feels on top of the world, there’s no greater place to have mulled wine, take in the panoramic views and watch the local hawks saw on the thermals. The church up at the top is a tranquil retreat, regular services continue in this spectacular remote location, but you are welcome to pay your respects and light a candle for those you carry in your heart.
Skiing & snowboarding
For a truly off the beaten track experience, this is the one for you. This will never be a ski in ski out, but it will be full of adventure. The local resorts are a swift drive away. You can chose from Kanin-Sella Nevea, Tarvisio in Italy, Mount Lussari in Italy or Nassfeld in Austria. We love the choice and diversity you can experience at the different resort, and all much more affordable than traditional Alp holidays.

Heli skiing & boarding
For a real freeride experience, this is one not to be missed. The options seem endless in the air, and the exhilaration of the ride to get there makes this an experience of a lifetime. No longer do we need to make the pilgrimage to Alaska, its all right here under the phenomenally experienced watchful eye of Alex Huber, World Freeride Champ several times over. You can book your slot, and also freeride with Alex so everyone becomes familiar with gear and experience levels, which in itself is so much fun!

Zipline
One of the most spectacular ways to see the valley. The largest of the zipline parks is run by Soca Rafting and is over the Ucje River, so you will finish right on our door step in Zaga. Again, it’s a good contender for ‘Bucket List’ material. Both the Ucje River and the surrounding mountains of Stol and Kanin look unbelievable as you are elevated to such heights. The guides are happy to accompany children, and training is given, so it is surprisingly family friendly – or go with a group of friends, it won’t disappoint!
