Center of Kranjska Gora

Kranjska Gora was first mentioned in written sources in 1326, but is believed to have been settled as early as the 11th century by Slovenes from Carantania. A railroad connection was built in 1870, unofficially starting the age of tourism. During the First World War, in 1916, Russian prisoners of war built a wooden chapel above the town commemorating their comrades killed in an avalanche while building a road over the Vršič Pass. Today, Kranjska Gora is a world-renowned ski resort in the winter and offers visitors an incredible array of outdoor activities in the summer. Excellent road accessibility makes it easy to visit other destinations like Bohinj, Bled, Bovec and even Ljubljana. In addition, Austria and Italy are a stone’s throw away.

At the time of construction of this website, there is no way to know if there will be any travel restrictions due to covid in the summer of 2023 but any attendees should of course keep track of the evolving situation when making travel arrangements. If there are travel restrictions in the country of origin or in Slovenia that would cause cancellation of travel plans to ASIC then lodging deposits and registration fees will be either refunded or credited for future use, at the attendee’s discretion. However, airline policies seem to change in ways impossible to anticipate, so attendees should consider appropriate trip cancellation insurance, refundable flights, or other safety measures.
