WINTER STORY
Winter in Gorski Kotar tells a
special story. It is a long story
of a freshly fallen shroud of
snow covering the woods, filled
with children’s playfulness
and the warmth of home
hearts. It is a
story of a long
tradition of
skiing and ski
competition.
The inhabitants
of Gorski Kotar
know how to
deal with snow enchantment.
Snow sports started as early
as in 1912 when the first
skiers arrived in Mrkopalj
region, and only a year later
the first ski course was
organised. In 1914 the first ski
championship was held. There
are several hotels, numerous
apartments and cottages that
offer shorter or longer stay
for the whole families and
organised groups. The vicinity
of coastline destinations, hot
seawater swimming pools
and other openings are ideal combination for recreational
holiday.
