Pohorje
The mountain range just outside Maribor attracts skiers by the thousand during the winter, and is one of the region's most popular destinations during warmer months as well, with its primal forests, waterfalls and lakes a paradise for nature-lovers. Such is the richness of flora and fauna here that the area attracts a good number of nature experts along with the tourists - keep your eyes peeled and you may be able to spot the largest butterfly in Europe. The area can be explored equally as well on foot or by bike and there is no shortage of restaurants and cafés to stop for a break or bite to eat. There's also a cable to the top if you'd like to enjoy the views without the hiking.
