The ski resort is accessible by coach via a road with a panoramic view or by the Golte cable car, which brings you all the way to the ski slopes in only 8 minutes offering spectacular views of the Savinja Valley along the way. Golte has become one of our favourite resorts in North Eastern Slovenia, small, yes; but throughout recent investment and modernisation it has retained a truly friendly and amazing atmosphere, loved by locals and esteemed alpine associations, you'll find fantastic hospitality and facilities, little to no queues and well groomed pistes sometimes all to yourself!
Getting your group to the Mountain Resort of Golte involves two options. The first and often the most hassle free is to fly your group from the UK to Ljubljana, and its Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU) in Brnik. The flight takes a little under two hours and is frequently delay free and on time. Regular flights depart for Ljubljana from a number of major UK airports throughout the week and on weekends, the majority of these however are London based airports, however as as this route is becoming increasingly popular in the winter season as it is in the summer, we expect further routes to pop up in the near future.
From Ljubljana Airport to the Mountain Resort of Golte is a short 1.5 hour transfer via coach as we head into the North East of the country.
For groups not looking to fly and would prefer to make the journey via coach, the route from Calais takes approximately 16.5 hours taking into account time for short but reasonable stop breaks.
Upon the mountain there are primarily two accommodation options for medium to larger sized groups. The first main point of stay is the 4* Hotel Montis, built in 2010 and situated near the upper station of the Žekovec cable car at 4,626 feet above sea level and an ideal starting point for skiers. The Hotel boasts amazing views over the Kamnik-Savinja Alps and the Savinja Valley below; friendly, relaxed and with bright rooms full of light your group will find comfort and fantastic facilities to enjoy your stay on the mountain.
For those that are looking for a more traditional trip, then the Mozirska Koča Mountain House, a traditional bed and breakfast for those that love the alpine feel just a short 10 minute walk from the base of the resort is perfectly suited for larger groups.
For smaller groups the Trije Ploti and Stari Stani mountain cottages on the north face of the resort, along with a number of bed and breakfast options in the town of Mozirje below ensure that you don't always have to bring large groups to get the best accommodation.
The Mountain Resort of Golte is an excellent choice for school ski trips. Small, yes, however what it lacks in size and sophistication it makes up for in spirit. As a local resort to the Savinjska Valley, you'll find all the benefits of large commercial resorts; well groomed pistes, a range of slopes for beginners and intermediates alike, but also forest trails, hidden slopes and most importantly of all, little to zero queues and a friendly atmosphere.
The main access points to the resort is the Žekovec cable car that connects the base of the mountain to the hotel. It is the longest in Slovenia at 3,270 meters and stems the flow of people entering the resort, keeping numbers low and the feel personal. Golte may not maintain the significant altitude of the large resorts of the big 4; Austria, France, Italy and Switzerland, and therefore it isn't as snow sure, but it does boast extensive snowmaking facilities and sees a good 4 month season from the end of December to late March/early April.
For intermediate and advanced skiers there is a fantastic range of red runs with big open slopes and tight, technical and challenging woodland runs for those wishing to progress and push themselves. The careful design of the area and the modern lift system enables budding beginners and intermediates to achieve rapid progression throughout their stay.
