Active Travel PlanningHiking in Slovenia
Planning a hiking or active holiday takes time, especially when you already have enough on your plate. While you focus on everyday life, I’ll create a trip that fits your interests and budget, so you can simply review the plan, make your bookings and look forward to your adventure.
Let’s plan your trip
What gets in the way
01
You have a list of places you want to visit. Maybe you’ve even started planning. But between blogs, maps, accommodation options, and endless recommendations, the research never seems to end.
Your holiday shouldn’t become another full-time job.
02
That beautiful hike on Instagram? It might be three hours from your hotel. And that perfect itinerary you found online? It might leave you exhausted by day two.
You want recommendations you can trust, not another hundred options to compare.
03
You finally get away, but you’re still checking directions, choosing restaurants, and figuring out tomorrow’s plans.
You want to arrive and enjoy the moment, not keep making decisions.
Good news? You don’t have to figure it all out yourself.
A different way to travel
Imagine arriving somewhere new and already knowing where you’re going, which trails are worth your time, and where to stop for a really good meal.
Your days have a natural rhythm. There’s time for adventure, but also time for that unplanned coffee with a mountain view.
The important details have been thought through. The little discoveries are still yours to make.
That’s how I believe travel should feel.
Thoughtful planning isn’t about scheduling every minute. It’s about getting the details right so you have the freedom to enjoy everything else.
Find your kind of adventure
Whether you’re dreaming of an entire trip planned around you, a day in the Slovenian mountains, or an independent long-distance trek, there’s a way to make it happen.
For the trips you’ve been talking about taking but haven’t had time to plan.
Personalized itineraries built around what you love: beautiful places, outdoor experiences, memorable food, and enough breathing room to enjoy it all.
From the big picture to the little details, I’ll do the research so you don’t have to.
Come discover the Slovenia I know and love.
From peaceful mountain trails to dramatic alpine views, I’ll help you discover routes that match your experience, interests, and pace.
Real local knowledge, thoughtfully chosen hikes, and a little more adventure than the usual tourist itinerary.
Planning to hike Sweden’s legendary Kungsleden?
I spent 10 days walking from Abisko to Kvikkjokk and turned everything I learned into a practical 37-page digital guide.
Daily stages, mountain huts, food resupply, boat crossings, and all the small details I wish I’d known before setting off.
Simple from the start
No complicated process. No endless back-and-forth. Just a thoughtful approach to creating a trip you’ll be excited to take.
Where would you love to go? What do you enjoy doing? What kind of trip would feel like a real break?
Start by sharing your ideas, even if they’re still a little all over the place.
I’ll take care of the research and shape a travel plan around your interests, budget, energy, and pace.
Think considered recommendations, realistic routes, and the practical details that make everything run more smoothly.
With your plan ready, you can stop comparing options and start looking forward to the experience.
More presence. More discovery. A lot less worrying about logistics.

The person behind ZivaPlans
Preferably with hiking boots on, a good view ahead, and a plan that leaves just enough room for spontaneity.
I live in Slovenia, surrounded by mountains I’ve spent years exploring. My background is in digital project management, so juggling moving pieces and making complicated things feel simple comes naturally. Now I use that for travel planning.
A great trip isn’t about seeing everything. It’s about the right experiences, enough time to enjoy them, and coming home with stories. If I can give you more of that and less research? Even better.
Tell me where you want to go. I’ll handle everything else.
