Pozdrav iz Hrvaške, I will write in English just in case

I plan to go skiing to Pohorje this weekend or the next, and I’ve never been there so I’d like a little tutorial. Mainly where to park my car, where to rent the equipment (skiing boots and skis) and where to get the ski pass. And any other useful info.

My initial idea was to park my car at Pohorska vzpenjača and go up by gondola, but according to this website ([https://www.visitpohorje.si/en/operation-of-devices-lines-and-cash-registers/](https://www.visitpohorje.si/en/operation-of-devices-lines-and-cash-registers/)) all of the slopes on this side of the mountain are closed. So I have to get to Areh somehow. Is the only was to get there by car or is there some gondola going up there? (I don’t have that much confidence in my car lel).

If the only way to get there is by car, can someone confirm that this is the place I have to go to? – [https://ibb.co/FmHMBfb](https://ibb.co/FmHMBfb)

Sorry for so many questions, I’m going alone and I don’t have much experience. Thanks!

  1. Pozdrav kolega iz Hrvatske.
    Sve što treba,od parkirališta i posuda opreme, nadeš kod donje postaje gondole.
    Možda je parkiralište malo skupo, ali možeš parkirati u gradu, u parking kuči. Onda možeš do skijališta sa avtobusom i možda taxi-jem. Gradski bus vozi redovito na ovoj liniji, jer je donja postaja gondole zapravo u gradu.
    Sad je zapalo dosta snijega, da možeš od gondole(pohorske vzpenjače) doči sa skijama na Areh. Odličan put.
    Sve dobro i lijepo skijanje.

  2. Dobro jutro!

    Najboljša opcija za parkiranje ti je parkirišče pri vzpenjači – tam rentaš smuči, pancarje, kupiš karto – na blagajni zahtevaj listek za zastojn parkiranje.

    Ker je zapadlo ogromno snega lahko smučaš od Bellvueja do do vzpenjače brez problema. (Bellvue (gondola) – spodnja vzpenjača) [vrooom](https://prnt.sc/0MBIZH7MXx2A) .

    Če hočeš na Areh ti iz Bellvueja vozi ski bus – vsakih 30min.

  3. Yes, if you are going to Areh by car, the map on your image is correct. Search for “Ruška koča na Arehu”. There is also hotel which is closed. There best ski slope there is called Pisker. But i am not sure if you can rent equipment at Areh.
