By car:
If you’re already in mainland Slovenia, use the main regional road by following signs for Kranj, then Jesenice, then Kranjska Gora. If you’re in the western part of Slovenia, use regional road via Bovec, but check conditions of this road first since it’s usually closed during winter due to high snow. If you’re arriving from Italy you’ll be arriving to Kranjska Gora via Tarvisio, while if you’re arriving from Austria you’ll either use mountain pass Wurzenpass (often closed during winter so check conditions first) or Karavanke tunnel.
Apartment is located right by central ski slopes of Kranjska Gora and Larix hotel. If you’re arriving by regional road from Ljubljana direction, take the second exit for Kranjska Gora (or first exit if you’re arriving from Italy), drive straight for 200m, turn left, then right when in front of hotel Larix, and few meters of rough road later you’re already by the apartment building.
