Green heart of the Alps

Upper Savinja Valley

Rolling meadows, traditional farms and the Savinja river winding beneath the Kamnik–Savinja Alps. A calm, scenic drive through the real Slovenian countryside.

Solčava Panoramic Road

Winding past centuries-old high-altitude farms, this scenic route offers breathtaking views over the Kamnik-Savinja Alps and glacial valleys. Marked stops along the way share local folklore and regional delicacies. It is one of Slovenia’s most unforgettable, unspoiled mountain drives.

Velika Planina

Home to one of Europe’s last active shepherd villages, this high plateau features unique wooden huts with pine-shingle roofs. During summer, you can watch herdsmen tend their cattle, taste traditional sour milk, and try Trnič cheese. Reached via cable car, it offers panoramic mountain views and a real step back in time.
