Your questions about Maribor, answered

How big is Maribor?

Maribor has 42 trails served by 11 lifts — the most trails of the 4 resorts we track in Slovenia. On lifts it ranks 2nd of the 4.

How high is Maribor?

The lifts run from 902ft at the base to 4,419ft at the top, a vertical of 3,517ft. Of the 4 resorts we track in Slovenia, that is the 4th highest, with the biggest vertical.

The base is below 3,281ft, so the lowest runs are the first to suffer in a mild spell; the upper mountain is the safer bet early and late in the season.

They leave out check-in and baggage time, and mountain roads in snow can take much longer. Check with airlines and transfer companies before booking.
