Costin from Romania writes:

A family resort with decent facilities, offering conditions comparable to any ski area of ​​similar size in the Alps: slopes for all categories, modern facilities, fair prices, welcoming guesthouses.

As for the off-topic comments, they are the fruit of some haters (manipulated by "independent" and "non-profit" organizations), who have nothing to do with skiing and probably have not even skied on the welcoming slopes of Straja. For the sake of correct information, the bear mentioned in another post is cared for on private property, unrelated to the ski area, by a private person, who rescued him 25 years ago.

Let's ignore the haters and enjoy the competent information of this site, which is about snow and those who love it.

The snow that is usually generous in Straja every season, makes it an attractive destination for a ski vacation.

So: Let It Snow!
