If you're coming by plane, don't forget that Slovenia is very small, so you can use airports in our neighbourhood, too. Truth be told, flying to Ljubljana is usually not the cheapest option. A list of nearby airports with approximate distances to Veržej:

Ljubljana: 200 km
Graz, Austria: 100 km

If you arrive to Ljubljana airport (Brnik), take a shuttle to Ljubljana and then a train to Veržej.

By car

Exit the A5 highway (Maribor — Hungary) at Vučja vas and follow the signs for Banovci. In about 7 km you'll drive into Veržej. Our venue is on your left. You cannot miss it, it can be seen even much before you arrive to the village. There are plenty of parking places in the car park at the rear of the building.

Distances

Ljubljana airport — Veržej: 200 km, 2 hours by car, mainly on highways (don't forget to buy the toll sticker!)
Graz airport — Veržej: 100 km, one hour by car, mainly on highways (don't forget to buy toll stickers for both Austria and Slovenia)

By train

The train station in Veržej is located 2 km from the venue. We can come and pick you up if you let us know when you are coming — unless you decide to simply walk to the mansion, which you can actually see from the train station: look for something big and yellow. The pickup can also be arranged if you travel to Murska Sobota — or maybe happen to wake up there by accident :-)
