The Green Heart of Europe

About The Green Heart of Europe Android App

Slovenia has become the world's first country to be declared a green destination, based on an assessment by the Netherlands-based organisation Green Destinations which established 96%-compliance across 100 criteria.

Anywhere you turn in green, active and healthy Slovenia, towards the Alpine peaks, the green forests, the Adriatic sea, the mysterious Karst, the vineyards or the Pannonian plains, everything is green. And the people of Slovenia carefully cultivate a green attitude. They love their green countryside and are delighted to share it with guests. They are proud of sustainable tourism and endeavour to preserve the environment as it is – unspoiled and beautiful. To this end, the Slovenian Tourist Board has drawn up a Green Scheme, which is an effective and user-friendly tool for the introduction and promotion of sustainable business models in Slovenian tourism. The certification scheme under the brand Slovenia Green combines efforts to ensure the sustainable development of tourism, and provides destinations and service providers with a concrete tool for the assessment and improvement of sustainable operations. No less than nine destinations in Slovenia have already joined the Green Scheme. Get to know them and fall in love!
