Kranjska Gora is a town in northwestern Slovenia, in the Julian Alps close to the Austrian and Italian borders. Its lifts and runs stretch along the slopes of Vitranc from Kranjska Gora to Planica, between 800 metres (2,625 feet) and 1,215 metres (3,986 feet), with more terrain at Mojstrana. Five chairlifts and eight other lifts serve 21 slopes.
It’s Slovenia’s oldest ski resort: the country’s first ski lift opened on the Preseka slope in November 1948. The Vitranc Cup, held since 1961 and a World Cup stop since 1968, brings the men’s World Cup giant slalom and slalom to the Podkoren slope. The Vitranc 2 chairlift to the summit of Vitranc mainly serves sightseeing now, and it closes from 15 March to 15 June each year to protect nesting capercaillie.
Ski Arena looks at the ski slopes, so it’s the one to check for snow on the runs. Town Center shows the centre of Kranjska Gora, and Lake Jasna shows the lake a few minutes’ walk from town at the start of the Vršič road. All three are live video. The ski lift operation page shows which slopes and lifts are open.
Kranjska Gora is in the Upper Sava valley, close to where Slovenia meets Austria and Italy.
Kranjska Gora isn’t on the Epic, Ikon or Indy Pass.
