There’s certainly no shortage of places to ski in Europe, and many of us are used to the slopes of Austria and the Alps of Italy.
However, in Slovenia they’ve upped their game to tremendous effect, with the magnificent Planica ski resort, close to the Tamar Valley.
It’s here that one of the highest ski jumps in the world is located, and throughout the last 80 years or more it’s been home to over 60 world records for brave souls who’ve conquered its slope, to soar beyond.
