Slovenia has already hosted world championships in gliding, parachuting and paragliding, as well as European ballooning championships. The Adriatic is ideal for swimming and windsurfing and there are also a number of marinas on the coast. Divers can make for the sea and the lakes, and the Soca, Krka and Kolpa rivers attract many canoeists and rafters. There are several equestrian clubs around Slovenia. The country's well-maintained footpaths include mountain paths and European trails.
Cycling is possible almost everywhere.
Mountain rivers, peaceful waters, karst streams, lakes and reservoirs are a delight for anglers and fly-fishers. Slovenia has 8 golf courses, the oldest being the Bled golf course which opened in 1938. There are other attractive golf courses at Lipica, Mokrice and Volcji potok Arboretum. The newest Slovenian golf courses can be found at the Moravske toplice health spa, Terme Olimia, Slovenske Konjice and in Ptuj. In recent years, several conference centres have been designed in Slovenia.
