The valley of ski flying hills
The alpine valley of Planica is situated only seven kilometers from Kranjska Gora, at the very border with Italy. Together with the neighboring village of Ratece, the valley of Planica has only 650 inhabitants, but it is, nevertheless, well known throughout the world. Already before the war the construction of ski-jumps had begun in the area between Planica and the deepest end of Tamar, below the two thousand-meter high Ponce Mountains.

Planica is a true paradise for cross-country skiers. From here, lovely cross-country ski runs stretch out in all directions: to Kranjska Gora and further on towards Gozd Martuljek, along the ski jumps to the alpine hostel in the Tamar valley, as well as several runs across the meadows to the Italian border and Tarvisio on the Italian side. Don't forget to bring your passport!
There is a ski school and a nursery for children.
