Cividale
Forum Iulii. Cividât: The old names of Cividale tell it all. A lot has happened here over the centuries. Today, the Devil’s Bridge, the Cathedral Square and a mystical vault from the Celtic period invite you to take a stroll deep into the past.

minutes by car
Postojna
Welcome to the underworld! Descend into the Postojna caves and explore a world of glistening stalactites and shimmering karst. Created by nature over millions of years, hardly any other sight on the Adriatic is so mystical and mysterious. The legendary Empress Sissi is said to have travelled on this cave railway which takes you through this marvellous underground world.

minutes by car
Ljublijana
In the mood for some big city vibes? Then head for Ljubljana! Slovenia’s economic and cultural centre is a wonderfully charming place, especially in the summer. A little Viennese charm here, a little Parisian chic there, oodles of greenery and always plenty of the joie de vivre of the south. Have fun!

minutes by bike
Valle Cavanata
The Valle Cavanata nature reserve is home to more than 260 different species of birds, making it a veritable heaven for birdwatchers and lovers of wild, unspoilt nature. 350 hectares in size, this bird oasis is right next to our holiday resort. With a bit of luck, you can spot the glorious flamingos or watch a kingfisher catching fish. It is equally beautiful on Cona Island, where the white wild horses graze.

minutes by car
Collio
Gently undulating, lush green hills as far as the eye can see. A landscape that also charmed the ancient Habsburgs. The Collio Goriziano produces excellent wine. Some even say that the best wines in the world grow here. It’s best if you simply see for yourself and enjoy a trip to an area around Gorizia that will beguile all your senses.
