Kranjska Gora
A gentle, sunlit resort in the Julian Alps above a pretty market town — the easiest place in Europe to learn to ski without spending much.
Terrain
Small, friendly and almost entirely blue, with a handful of short reds off the top. The lower slopes face the sun and soften early, while the upper runs hold up better. Good for families and first-timers, thin for experts.
Best suited to: Beginner, Intermediate
