General information [add image]

Slovenia (Slovenian Slovenija), republic in southeastern Europe, in the Balkan Peninsula, bounded on the north by Austria, on the northeast by Hungary, on the southeast and south by Croatia, and on the west by Italy and the Adriatic Sea. Formerly a constituent republic of Yugoslavia, Slovenia proclaimed its independence in June 1991. It joined the United Nations (UN) in May 1992.

Climate

May-October is an excellent time to visit, as it's the warmest and driest time, with the average temperature a balmy 70 F/21 C. A sweater may be needed in the evenings or for trekking in the mountains, even in the summer. Any time from April to October is fine touring weather, but keep in mind that July and August can be crowded -- many Europeans take their month-long vacations at that time, so we prefer the shoulder season. The average temperature drops to 32 F/0 C in winter, and it can get very cold and snowy in the Alpine area and very damp and windy along the coast. (southtravels.com)
