Pohorje is one of Slovenia’s most popular natural destinations, offering a wide range of activities for nature lovers, sports enthusiasts, and adrenaline seekers. The area is beloved by hikers and cyclists alike, with numerous well-maintained trails and biking paths winding through forests and hills, providing stunning views of Maribor and its surroundings.

During spring, summer, and early autumn, visitors can enjoy Pohorjet — a special lift that enables thrilling descents across the varied terrain of the Snow Stadium, famously known for hosting the Golden Fox skiing competition. For those craving even more adrenaline, the downhill biking track is the perfect choice. The cable gondola takes you to the summit, where a variety of challenging routes await, suitable for both experienced riders and beginners.

In winter, Pohorje transforms into a paradise for skiing, snowboarding, and cross-country skiing enthusiasts. Areh, the highest point of Maribor’s Pohorje, is the most popular skiing destination, offering the best natural snow conditions for all types of winter sports. Throughout the year, Pohorje remains a favorite destination for anyone seeking active outdoor adventures, no matter the season.
