Bovec - Kanin Ski Resort Guide
Bovec - Kanin Ski Resort Guide
Bovec - Kanin is the only ski area in Slovenia where the slopes spread higher than 2,000m. Bovec - Kanin is located above Bovec, with views over the world-renowned Soča River Valley where there is extensive cross-country skiing at low altitude. Because of the high altitude (2,300m) of the main pistes, there is reliable snow and a view that stretches from the heart of the Alps to the Adriatic Sea. There's 30km of slopes, for all standards, served by 8 lifts. It is not usually possible to ski to the valley at Bovec - Kanin. A special attraction of the Bovec - Kanin Ski Center is the opportunity to ski in three countries: at the Sella Nevea and Tarvisio ski resorts in Italy and at the Arnoldstein ski resort in Austria. Guests who purchase a six or seven day Bovec - Kanin ski pass can ski for two days free at these neighbouring resorts.
The first cross-border ski resort in Slovenia is now up and running. The Kanin to Sella Nevea link was completed at the end of 2009. The linking of these resorts has expanded the ski area and off-piste terrain access. There is snowmaking available on the Italian Side and there are 4 restaurants (1 in Slovenia, 3 in Italy), plus 7 bars (4 in Slovenia, 3 in Italy).

Visitor Reviews of Bovec - Kanin
Chris Franklin from United Kingdom writes:
Yes, since the great link with Sella Nevea was finished, the skiing here at Bovec - Kanin has become superb with excellent swooping red runs across the border and majestic off-piste which seems limitless! Backed up by crowdless slopes, cheap prices and extra skiing just down the road in Tarvisio, it's an amazing place to ski! Want more info? contact me at info@hucksterslodge.com
