Pohorje

Free your mind

Pohorje is a green oasis in the eastern part of the Alps – a world of mighty forests, mysterious peat bogs, deep gorges, open meadows, breathtaking views, and genuine, warm-hearted people. Here, you can truly immerse yourself in unspoiled nature – beneath centuries-old treetops, in the whispering sounds of forests and streams, in the richness of preserved cultural heritage, and in the welcoming spirit of the locals.

Amid forests, lakes, and waterfalls, you will find a dense network of well-marked cycling and hiking trails leading to stunning scenery and panoramic views. Set out on the Slovenian Mountain Trail, which takes you from Maribor across Pohorje all the way to the coast. The neighbouring Kozjak range, a borderland hilly area stretching along the Austrian–Slovenian border above the Drava River, also offers idyllic paths and remarkable views. On Pohorje, you can free your mind through the meditative sounds of nature or through adrenaline-filled adventures.

Winter on Pohorje is a paradise for skiers, cross-country skiers, snowboarders, sledders, hikers, and all lovers of snowy pleasures, while the other seasons offer countless opportunities for active enjoyment. You will also appreciate the unique feeling of being surrounded by pristine nature while remaining just moments away from a vibrant urban centre.

The municipalities of Hoče–Slivnica, Lovrenc na Pohorju, Ruše, and Selnica ob Dravi offer perfect relaxation, thrilling adventures, and unforgettable sporting and gastronomic experiences.
