Purity, colour, serenity, clarity do not go anyway to describing the setting, the mixed spruce and deciduous covered slopes in the near-distance giving way to soaring rocky peaks in the dramatic background. This paradise is a quick escape from Kranjska Gora, only a 20-minute walk up the winding road toward Vrs\u030cic\u030c.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PLANICA NORDIC CENTRE:<\/strong> Boasting eight different ski jumping hills, including the massive one used for the annual Planica FIS World Cup Ski Jumping Final each March, the Planica Nordic Centre covers more than 100,000 square metres and is one of the largest complexes of its size in the world. Throughout the year visitors who aren\u2019t here for professional training can still get their own adrenaline rush and experience what it\u2019s like to fly through the air for nearly 600m on the Planica Zipline. <strong>Info: Ratec\u030ce Planica, +386 31 689 806, info@nc-planica.si, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nc-planica.si\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.nc-<\/a><\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nc-planica.si\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>planica<\/strong><\/a><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nc-planica.si\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">.si<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>RUSSIAN CHAPEL:\u00a0The Russian Chapel (Ruska Kapelica) was built to honour Russian prisoners of war who died here while constructing the road over the Vrs\u030cic\u030c pass during the First World War. It was a strategic point for the Austrians, providing access (and arms) to the Soc\u030ca Front.
