Town Center - Kranjska Gora, Slovenia

Wooden market stalls, old alpine houses and visitors in winter coats fill the town center of Kranjska Gora, a mountain village in northwestern Slovenia, with the slopes of the Julian Alps rising just beyond the rooftops.

The village sits at 2,645 feet (806 m) on the Sava Dolinka River, close to the borders with Austria and Italy, which meet on nearby Peč. It was first recorded in 1326 and is home to about 1,500 people.

Every winter it hosts World Cup slalom races on Vitranc, and ski jumpers fly off the giant hills at Planica nearby. In summer, the road over the Vršič Pass winds south into the mountains.

Did You Know? Above the village, on the road to Vršič, stands a wooden Russian Chapel, built in 1916 by Russian prisoners of war in memory of comrades killed by an avalanche.
