SNO-man says
A relatively modern ski centre located above the beautiful old lakeside town of Bohinjska Bistrica. Skiing is largely on tree-lined slopes, grassy in the summer months. The piste running from the top of the double chair lift Kobla III is 6km long. Kobla is the only ski resort in Slovenia accessible by train, with trains from Koper to Nova Gorica and from Ljubljana to Jeseinice. A snowmaking system has been in operation since 1993.

The Slovenian resort is also known as Bohinj and has common misspellings:
The direction which the various Kobla slopes face can make or break your ski holiday. To guarantee good snow conditions, choose a resort with piste which face the right way for the time of year you're travelling.
- In the coldest winter months of January and February pick a resort with sunny south facing slopes, so your days on the snow doesn't feel like a polar expedition. Conversely, in the warmest spring skiing months of March and especially April, a resort with cool and shady north facing trails will ensure you're not riding on slush, but benefitting from best late season snow. The best destinations have areas which face in all directions so that you're guaranteed greating conditions whatever the weather. Kobla has slopes facing ?.

Kobla day and evening care plus snow ski schools and babysitting.
Facilities for families are limited. There is no childcare, but children seven and older can join ski school and at Vogel there's a kindergarten on the snow for children aged three and up. There are lift ticket discounts for children aged five to 11. However many of the hotels do offer discounts or free accommodation for children in families and if no special facilities are required, Bohinj is a good destination for families looking for high value skiing, dining and travel.
