If the fabulously expensive 'ice hotel' in Sweden is a bit beyond your budget, no fear - there's an equally frosty reception at Slovenia's very own igloo village. After dinner in the igloo restaurant and a session with your eski-mates down at the ice bar, you have the option of accommodation: a classic or romantic igloo. Snowshoeing, snowbiking and skiing are the main activities available at the mountainside location, but just the fact that you're staying in an igloo should be exciting enough. Expect a party atmosphere in and around the village, open from December until the end of March. Good for events and special occasions.

Situated just a few kilometres from Joše Pučnik airport (Brnik), or a 45 minute drive from Ljubljana - northbound along the A2 motorway, following signs for 'Krvavec Ski Center'.
