Stay amidst alpine peaks, explore the fascinating mountains and the welcoming valley.

Hotel Golte**** attracts those looking for special corners of nature. In the summer, it is your base for mountain hikes during which you may visit the Alpine Garden, a beautiful and unexpected discovery of rare autochthonous plants. Perhaps you wish to simply quickly unwind in the fresh mountain air or take your time in the heart of beautiful nature to read a book that you will have borrowed from the mountain library. You may indulge in further exercise at the fitness centre, and then head down to the valley, where lakeside experiences await you.

At the celebrated Velenje Beach, one of Slovenia’s best equipped natural beaches, you will enjoy local treats from a picnic basket, either before or after your ‘pletna’ boat ride on the lake. Then set off on a cycling discovery of the town or take your kids to a playground of your liking, perhaps the Mining Village at Velenje’s Sunny Park. Round off the perfect day with an excellent dinner at the Jezero restaurant with fine views over the glimmering surface of the lake.
