Velika planina


Mountain plateau, which impresses with its natural and cultural heritage

Incredible views

Welcome to the mountain plateau, which impresses with its natural and cultural heritage. The cable car and the chair lift will take you to the highest point, Gradišče, where breathtaking vies of the highest Alps sparkle in the north. Towards the south, the views of the Ljubljana Basin open in front of you.

Herdsmen settlement

Descent from the highest point of Velika planina to the idyllic herdsmen village, which still maintains the 500-year tradition of cattle grazing. In the summer, when the herders bring their cattle to graze, the mountain sparkles with life.

Herdsmen's huts

The huts in the settlement are characteristic and unique for Velika planina. In fact, one of the huts has been rearranged into a museum. The Preskar museum hut is the only one that preserved the original distinctive architecture with oval walls. The mountain also features the Chapel of Our Lady of the Snows and the dance floor - the place where the herders have gathered for many years.
