Winter insider tip: Slovenia, the "Aspen of Yugoslavia"

Slovenia, a country on the edge of the Alps, has been one of the rising stars in tourism in recent years. The country has seven ski resorts and more than 350 mountains higher than 2,000 meters. The most famous ski resort is located in the west of the republic, near the small town of Kranjska Gora - the place attracted so many winter sports enthusiasts in the 1980s that some locals proudly dubbed it the "Aspen of Yugoslavia".
