⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing place for relaxation and nature lovers! We spent a few peaceful days at Wörthersee and absolutely loved it. The water is crystal clear with beautiful turquoise tones, and the surroundings are breathtaking – calm, clean, and surrounded by mountains. There are plenty of quiet spots to relax, swim, or take a walk along the shore. Perfect for couples, families, or anyone looking to unwind in nature. Highly recommended – we would love to come back again!

Here are 2 of the best trails around: 1. Wörthersee Rundwanderweg • Distance: 55 kilometers • Difficulty: Moderate • Duration: 12-14 hours (can be split over multiple days) This is the most famous trail around Wörthersee, circling the entire lake. The trail offers breathtaking views of the lake from various vantage points and passes through charming villages such as Velden, Pörtschach, and Maria Wörth. You can explore forests, hills, and lakeside paths. The trail is well-marked and can be done in stages, making it accessible for all levels. 2. Pyramidenkogel Trail • Distance: 10 km • Difficulty: Moderate • Duration: 3-4 hours This trail leads to the Pyramidenkogel, a 100-meter-high wooden observation tower that offers 360-degree views of Wörthersee and the surrounding region. The hike starts in Reifnitz and takes you through scenic forests before reaching the summit. The ascent is a bit challenging, but the panoramic views from the top make it worth the effort. You can also take an elevator down after exploring the tower.

I love this lake. We go here every other summer, and I can’t be more happy here. I would definitely recommend a stay in Klagenfurt, but also in Velden!

A hidden gem 💎 yet to have international tourists invasion .. the west side of the lake is nicer with a lot to restaurants and options

A turquoise blue lake, mountain views and lush green nature. Wörthersee is a place which makes you to feel relaxed from the beginning. I think the only problem is that all the lakesides are surrounded by private beaches and hotels. However, there are lakeside locations that you can access for free. Especially Velden is an ideal town for having a walk and having a nice meal.

Beautiful place where you can enjoy a clean lake view with a walking track at one side. Lots of water sports activities and boat cruises are also available but only during summer. In winter everything stands still except 2-3 restaurants. We visited in winter so we witnessed Very few tourists and an ample amount of locals walking on the track and too many senior citizens (old to very old) were there.

Super clean Lots of trails Lots of beaches Water so amazing just wanna jump! Enjoy

I must say I was quite impressed by this place. It's not very big, but it's really beautiful. The tickets are affordable and, if you're in Klagenfurt, I think it's worth seeing. There's also a coffee shop inside if you want to have a drink or something to eat. I highly recommend it!

We had a really nice trip. We went around the world in three hours and had a fantastic time. We all enjoyed it, my husband and I, but also our children. The weather was warm and sunny so we were really lucky to walk around the park, enjoy and take pictures. This is my big recommendation for all parents because it is guaranteed to be a good, beautiful and useful time. The park is excellently and creatively done, there is an inner and outer part of Minimundus as well as a big wheel. There is also a gift shop with souvenirs and a restaurant where we had lunch.

Nice experience. Big free parking in front. Adult ticket was 21€. The park is not too big, not too small. You need 2 to 3 hours to see everything. The mini replicas are very detailed. The plants, flowers and grass are all curated in a way to fit into context of the minimundus. Many of the replicas are animated... mini trains travel around, crains loading containers on cargo ship, wind mills, water mills, space shuttle... everything moves. Really nice. There is also a bar and restaurant inside if you get thirsty or hungry and a panoramic wheel if you are not affraid of hights. Recommended.

Minimundus: A World Tour in Two Hours! If you're ever in Klagenfurt, Austria, you absolutely must visit Minimundus. It was definitely worth the day spent there, especially with kids! It's an incredibly educational and engaging place where you can literally travel the world in about two hours, viewing hundreds of perfect miniature models of famous buildings and landmarks. The models are so nicely maintained, and the entire park is designed to be easily accessible and fun for all ages. I highly recommend carving out some time for this unique experience—it’s the perfect way to spark curiosity and learn about global architecture and geography!

Beautiful place for families and as adults we enjoyed it very much, too. Only missing part is Something from Slovakia. For example Blue Church would be beautiful miniature.

My daughter and i enjoyed our weekends trip here in Klagenfurt and Minimundus is one of my dreams to go to with my kids! And my daughter enjoyed it much!!! Definitely coming back here in the future.. Minimundus ✅ Well recommended when you visit Austria 🇦🇹🥰 TOP! 👌🏼

What a novelty! Really fascinating especially because they use original materials as much as possible. The detail is incredible and I appreciate the informative signage and moving parts - for example an elevator in the Eiffel Tower and a space shuttle “launch”. Walked around for about an hour with a friend and enjoyed the sunshine. Almost no one else there on a weekday.

Impressive statue in the town zentrum.

Very impressive statue in the middle with dragon. Nice city, loved architecture, shops

If you like statues of mythical creatures, especially those carved in 1600, then you will not be disappointed. The square in front of the town hall is attractive and pleasant.

Nice, but the dragon does not blow fire like i saw in Shrek 🐉 🔥

Lovely small town in Austria with nice people and architecture. We stayed for a night while traveling Austria and were surprised with quality of experience we had here. Small but very well maintained, with all beauty of old buildings and churches. Lovely place for a walk, bite and sip. Would be definitely coming back for more 🙏🏻

The lovely city center of Klagenfurt. The dragon (Lindwurm) is really a sight to see and admire.

Nice place. On Christmas time beautiful market, with great offer. Wonderful decoration. There is a lot of parking place around. You can take a nice walk.

A powerful castle from the outside, the view is wonderful from the top. But the fee is very high for basically nothing, one room and a restaurant, even the most basic shops, we were surprised and not in a good way, we have already been to castles with a lot of investment that had something to see...

Hochosterwitz Castle stands as a magnificent testament to medieval architecture, perched atop a 150-meter-high dolomite rock in Launsdorf, Austria. Its commanding location not only offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding Carinthian landscape but also highlights its historical significance as a strategic fortress designed to withstand sieges and invasions over centuries. Visitors often describe the journey to the castle as an integral part of the experience, with the walk up offering spectacular scenery and a sense of anticipation, although the castle can also be accessed via a funicular for those who prefer an easier ascent. The castle's defining feature is its series of 14 fortified gates, each representing a different aspect of medieval defensive architecture. These gates, which served as formidable obstacles for invaders, are a major highlight, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the castle’s rich military history. Walking through these gates not only provides insight into medieval siege tactics but also amplifies the sense of stepping back into a time of knights and battlements. The structure’s well-preserved architecture, including towers, battlements, and defensive walls, underscores its importance as a resilient stronghold during the Ottoman invasions and other historical conflicts. Inside, the castle boasts a collection of medieval weaponry and armor, as well as a museum that showcases its layered history. The interior spaces, including a castle chapel, armory, and various courtyards, reflect a blend of functional military design and past aristocratic lifestyles. The armory, in particular, is a fascinating display of medieval warfare, while the castle’s panoramic vantage points provide stunning views of the lush Carinthian landscape, emphasizing its military and scenic importance. Visitors often remark on the unique experience offered by exploring these historic interiors, which are complemented by occasional displays of contemporary art integrated into the historic setting. The history of Hochosterwitz dates back to its first mention in 860 AD. The castle was fortified extensively in the 16th century, notably under the patronage of the Khevenhüller family, transforming it into one of the most formidable military bastions of its time. Today, it stands as a symbol of resilience and a vital part of Carinthian cultural heritage, attracting thousands of visitors annually who come to admire its historical architecture, sweeping views, and intriguing stories. The experience of visiting Hochosterwitz is enhanced by its accessibility and the variety of activities on offer ranging from exploring the castle grounds and towers to engaging with its cultural exhibitions. The site’s scenic location, historical depth, and well-preserved structures make it one of Austria’s most impressive medieval castles, celebrated for its architectural grandeur and panoramic vistas that extend over the rugged landscape of Carinthia. Whether as a day trip from nearby towns or as a historical pilgrimage, Hochosterwitz remains an iconic and awe-inspiring monument to Austria’s medieval past and enduring strength.

The castle is set in a beautiful natural surrounding and is impressive through the number of gates you have to go through to enter it (or conquer it in the Middle Ages). The tickets are quite expensive (we paid 77 euro for a family of 3 with one-way lift access included). If you purchase 2-way lift access, they are going to be more expensive. You can also climb and descend on foot, in which case the tickets will be a little cheaper. There were 2 exhibitions in the main castle: a permanent one, which looked a bit dusty and old-school, telling the history of the castle and the family owning it. The temporary exhibition was dedicated to Leonardo da Vinci, and costed extra. There are also a restaurant serving local specialties, toilets and a gift shop. Most defense towers and gates are either permanently closed or under renovation, so they cannot be visited. You can have some amazing views of the surrounding areas from the top level.

Entry is a bit pricier, but the castle is totally worth it. The walk to the top is easy, no need to take the lift (except for visitors with health impairment). Adequate parking right by the gate. Restaurant at the top was a pleasant surprise, decent food and prices not through the roof. The place was not super crowded and you can comfortably buy tickets at the spot.

A special place where the ancient history still lives on. Could get 5 stars when the museum becomes updated. The views are stunning. The food is also good and affordable considering the location. Can however be difficult to find a parking.

The medieval castle is one of the most beautiful in Austria. You can take the elevator, or you can hike up, which takes about 30 minutes.

Beautiful castle, free parking nearby but you need a ticket to even start walking to it. It is worth it though

Beautiful Village and beautiful bridge with a nice view on its river. And even more special when you understand that this bridge is hundred of years old. Just take a look at the attached pictures.

A charming medieval stone bridge straight from a fairytale! The surrounding old town is picturesque, with cobblestone streets and historic buildings. Nearby towns like Škofja Loka add to the magic. Perfect for photos and a peaceful stroll. Highly recommend this hidden gem! *Great for history lovers and photographers.*

Lovely little town, however the photos of the bridge are deceiving. A lot smaller than imagined with rubbish on the sides of the river. Bridge was disappointing, however the little town was lovely.

This is a nice village, very close to Ljubljana. It can be a good destination for half a day over the week end. It can get busy, though.

Nice atmosphere and worth of visiting.

Lovely bridge. The best photos can be taken from the south west of the bridge.

It was a calm and nife atmosphere which leads to a small square with good restaurants

Wonderful walk thru the city of Skofja Loka. We drove up to the castle and had no problem parking. We basically had the place to ourselves and enjoyed seeing all of the exhibits housed in the castle. A little history about the castle...in the 12th century on the hills above Škofja Loka stood three fortifications: the Upper Tower on Krancelj; the Lower Fort (nider vest); and the Loka Castle, a residence of Freising Bishops, built at the brink of a natural terrace. The castle is first mentioned in 1202 as castrum firmissimum, although today's building dates from the 16th century. The castle was rebuilt in 1691 after an earthquake.

Had an amazing time exploring Škofja Loka Castle! 🌿🏰 We wandered through the beautiful castle garden — such a peaceful spot. After that, we grabbed a drink at a cozy little bar nearby. The views from up there were absolutely stunning — the whole valley laid out below. Incredible atmosphere, definitely one should not miss this place!

Great castle to visit if in the area with lots of history going back centuries to present day. They also have many floors you can visit. Tickets are only 5 euros. However, some exhibits didn’t have the English translation.

Super place of interest! The castle has three floors, each with different exhibition, displaying history, local customs and traditions. There are also paintings and stuffed animals. Museum itinerary can be followed by children too. The personnel is helpful and the ticket is very cheap. You can also take a walk in the garden, which has various piece of interest. Absolutely recommend!

It’s more of a museum rather than a castle. It’s an ok castle, and you will not feel yourself visiting a castle really.

The castle is in the beautiful village of Skofa Loka which is full of wonderful buildings, situated along a clean wide river. The castle is very scenic from the outside and has a good value café where I had a delicious homemade lemonade. There are plenty of places to eat in the village too and shops, both tourist and regular. The village and the castle are well worth a visit. It is easy to get too, about an hour or so by bus from Ljubljana.

Walked up to the castle, even didn’t go inside the castle, but the scenery along the path is beautiful n quite even on Sunday.

Been there several times now and the quality and the views always keep amazing mee. One of the best in Kärnten-Austria. Respect the course and people. Let’s cherish this pearl!

One of my favorite spots in Austria, very easy to reach by car, a great place to relax and have a family holiday, a lush green nature and a deep blue lake. Simply amazing

Warmest lake of Austria!(IMHO) Klopeiner See, located in Carinthia, is one of Austria’s warmest and sunniest lakes, making it a popular destination for both locals and tourists. The lake is known for its crystal-clear waters, which often reach pleasant temperatures perfect for swimming, paddleboarding, and boating. With well-kept beaches and designated swimming areas, it's a fantastic spot for families, couples, or solo travelers looking to relax by the water. The lake is surrounded by a variety of restaurants, offering easy access and convenient amenities for visitors. For a fee of 6 to 7 euros per day, which includes parking for the entire day, you can enjoy the lake's public beaches, showers, changing rooms, and other facilities. In addition to water activities, there are plenty of scenic walking and biking trails around the lake, offering picturesque views of the surrounding mountains and countryside. Klopeiner See has a lively, welcoming atmosphere while still offering spots to escape the crowds, making it a great blend of relaxation and recreation. With nearby dining options and excellent facilities, it’s an easy and enjoyable day trip destination for anyone visiting Carinthia.

Unfortunately many beautiful Austrian lakes are surrounded with fences and is therefore impossible to access them unless you pay a high entrance fee.

Beautifull place, kindly people.. nice memories.. one day I will come back

This is the warmest of all Carithian lakes, and for sure the most friendly one of you are looking for a swim fin with your dog. Absolutely love the facilities and what nearby bars and cafes offer and serve.

Beautiful lake but very touristy.

Pulsing river of Ljubljana city. There are dozens of bridges and some of them are really interesting from architectonic point of view. This river also offers possibility for a boat trip. We haven't tried it but maybe next time. The river is crossed so many times...

Lovely river crosses Ljubljana!

In autumn, the river is one of many in Europe. In summer, however, it stands out from the gray of mundaneity and becomes a very important tourist center in Ljubljana. I adore this river and its cruises.

Charming place with plenty of bars, cafés and small pretty places to explore. Highly recommended. Ljubljana is a wonderful City, with wonderful people and excellent gastronomic options.

25€ for half an our tour for three of us. Charming night tour.

There are a lot of beautiful buildings on the riverbank and many interesting bridges over this nice river

I simply love this place. The whole city is amazing as are the people! So beautiful and picturesque there is just something simple yet mysterious about this place If there is one pls d to add to your “must see before I die” list then this is it! We spent the day at Lake Bled coming off a cruise ship was its a side trip to this city and were blown away by what we saw Suggest taking a tour group to see the place for a greater appreciation of the historical significance of many landmark places here. Ours was amazing ! TRIVIA - And if you look through my photos you will find a face built into the door out of brass. It was traditional for the architect to build his own face into such structures back in the day!! Enjoy!

This is a charming square that is the starting point for all the streets and alleys of the old city. There are lots of charming restaurants around with a relaxed atmosphere along the banks of the river. The beauty and cultural richness are evident from every angle. It's fun to wander and get lost here.

One of the most beautiful old town squares where multiple streets end here. You can follow those streets to find nice restaurants, cafés, local market, boat trips by the river, and more. Or just enjoy the walking among beautiful buildings and tiny alleyways.

A very beautiful square. A noisy tourist spot, but worth a visit. Excellent views of the embankment, Three Bridges, and the castle.

Prešeren Square is one of the most beautiful and lively places in Ljubljana. It’s surrounded by charming architecture and connected to the famous Triple Bridge (Tromostovje), which adds a unique and picturesque touch to the area. The square is impressively clean and well-maintained, making it a pleasant spot for a walk or a break. There are many cozy cafes around where you can sit, relax, and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere. The place is always full of life, with both locals and tourists passing by, which gives it a special, dynamic energy. Definitely a must-visit when in Slovenia!

1 | Prešernov trg is the central square of Ljubljana, named after the Slovenian national poet France Prešeren, whose statue stands at its center. Surrounded by important landmarks like the Franciscan Church and Triple Bridge, the square is a key meeting point and pedestrian hub in the city. 2 | A unique attraction in the square is "The Area with Ljubljana's Own Weather." It’s a spot in the middle of the round square where it’s always raining, and there’s even a traffic sign warning you about it. There aren’t many trees or shade in the square, so it gets really hot in the summer. The city addressed this by installing a water mist system. One of the artists then placed a traffic sign next to the wet pavement featuring an umbrella and a cloud. 3 | The square also features the Statue of France Prešeren, a Slovenian poet who stirred quite a bit of controversy in the first half of the 19th century. The statue itself has also been controversial, as it includes a depiction of a bare female chest. This is visible from the church in the square, which didn’t sit well with church officials. 4 | The square is definitely worth a visit — if you’re staying in Ljubljana for a few days, you’ll likely pass through it more than once. On summer evenings, you’ll often see street performers there, and the most popular one is the guy with the giant soap bubbles.

Plaza Prešeren is the vibrant heart of Ljubljana, always buzzing with life. Surrounded by elegant architecture, lively cafés, and the iconic pink Franciscan Church, it’s a perfect spot to soak up the city’s charm. Street performers, locals, and travelers mingle here, making it both a meeting point and a cultural hub. From the square, you can easily wander into the old town or cross the Triple Bridge. A must-visit for its energy, beauty, and central role in Ljubljana’s daily rhythm.

Prešeren Square is the lively heart of Ljubljana, where history, architecture, and local life meet. Surrounded by landmarks like the pink Franciscan Church, the statue of France Prešeren, and Plečnik’s Triple Bridge, it’s the perfect place to start exploring. Just a short walk away is the iconic Dragon Bridge, guarded by Ljubljana’s famous green dragons. During summer, every Friday, the center comes alive with Odprta kuhna (Open Kitchen) — a vibrant open-air food market offering dishes from all over the world. In the mornings, you’ll also find fresh local fruits and vegetables for sale at the nearby central market, making it a great stop for food lovers and casual wanderers alike.

Great central location, great service. The staff were very responsive to help us with any issues. The room is compact and comfortable. The kitchen is a bit of a tight squeeze but is well equipped.

Great location and great price. Everything you'd need. The bedroom is separate to the main room and it has a kitchenette, it is centrally located too with a large choice of bars and restaurants close by. Even though they are close we never had any noise problems. I don't think I would go back to Ljubljana again as I think I have experienced everything it has to offer but if I did go back I would stay here again.

U will not find a better location for a city tour. Great starting place for exploring the city, especially old town. Yet, noise levels at night are very low. No problem getting sleep here. We had Appartment 2 - it had everything we hoped for.

Very nice rooms and host, location is just perfect.

Stinking, suffocating, full of insects and cockroaches ... The location is excellent

I could not get the TV work.

Clean, tidy, all the essentials. Great location.

I'm disappointed. It's not worth the 15 euros. The only thing you have to pay for is to climb the flag tower. All the exhibition halls contain mostly textual information that can be found on Wikipedia. So, essentially, you can come here for free, stroll around the castle square without a ticket, and enjoy the tour. The castle grounds are also beautiful. I recommend walking up the hill instead of taking the funicular. It's a good workout! And be prepared to pay for the restrooms, even if you have a ticket. Overall, it's worth a visit, but without buying a ticket.

The history of a fortess on this site go back to the 11th century but the castle that stands here today was built under Frederick III of Habsburg as a stronghold against the Ottoman Empire. The beautiful decorated St George's Chapel dates from this time. It was extensively renovated over decades using lots of concrete as you can see all around. There is not much to be seen of the old csstle. Left and right were some interesting details like the old prison and the small armoury. When you climb the tower via the double red winding stairs you get a nice view over the city. Entry to the castle is easiest with the funicular which is included in the ticket price.

A historic castle overseeing the City of Ljubljana. The view is absolutely splendid and one can have a 360 view of the whole City from the viewpoints at the castle walls. It's well maintained with little museums located within the castle. There's also a wine bar and a lovely restaurant. One can choose to walk up to the place or simply take a funicular ride to the top. There's also a small parking lot right in front of the entry door to the castle.

Easy to get to ...funicular is a 1 minute ride. Castle is now theater. galleries, museum, restaurant plus the castle itself with nice viewing tower. Area of improvement is the signage. As the signs were not clear I just couldn't find the puppet museum which was the main reason of my visit.

Great views and atmosphere - but pricey if you’re going inside! Ljubljana Castle is definitely worth walking up to, even if you don’t buy the ticket. I didn’t go inside, but the views from the outside areas, the courtyard, and the paths around the hill are fantastic for photos, especially near sunset. The castle itself looks beautiful and well-preserved, and the walk up is quick and enjoyable. The only downside is the €15 ticket price (as of Nov 2025), which feels a bit high compared to similar castles. I’m guessing it’s partly because it includes the funicular and helps support ongoing renovations and events - but still, it’s a lot if you just want a short visit. Overall, a must-see spot for views and atmosphere, even without paying to enter.

Beautifully preserved castle with stunning panoramic views over Ljubljana. The mix of history, architecture, and modern exhibitions makes it a must-see. The walk up is lovely, and the tower viewpoint is absolutely worth it. A perfect blend of culture, scenery, and atmosphere.

The city's most important attraction. It's impressive. From the top of the castle tower, we can admire the city panorama. The ticket price includes entry to the tower and exhibition hall, as well as a ride down the funicular. I highly recommend it.

Ljubljana's Dragon Bridge in Slovenia is an iconic representation of Art Nouveau architecture, drawing visitors from far and wide. The bridge's four imposing dragon statues, one at each corner, command attention. Strategically located in Ljubljana's historic center, the bridge crosses the Ljubljanica River, facilitating social exchange. Fascinating local myths surround the bridge and its dragons, such as the story that the dragons acknowledge a virgin's crossing with a subtle movement. The concrete bridge has earned the colloquial nickname 'mother-in-law' from some locals, who find the dragons' fiery demeanor both captivating and intimidating. The Dragon Bridge, a masterpiece designed by Slovenian Jurij Zaninovic, stands as a testament to the city's resilience. This stunning Art Nouveau bridge was dedicated to the 40th anniversary of Hapsburg Emperor Franz Josef's reign, with the dates 1848-1888 elegantly inscribed on its side. A symbol of hope and renewal, the bridge honors the emperor's contributions to the city's revitalization after the devastating 1895 earthquake. Conveniently located, the bridge is within walking distance of iconic landmarks like Ljubljana Cathedral, Ljubljana Castle, and the vibrant Ljubljana Central Market.

The Dragon Bridge in Ljubljana is one of the city's most iconic landmarks, symbolizing Ljubljana's identity. It is located in Ljubljana's city center over the Ljubljanica River. The bridge is famous for its four large bronze dragon statues—two at each end—and sixteen smaller dragons decorating the bridge's span.

Definitely my favorite bridge in all of Europe, because I love dragons. And this was very close and walkable to my hotel and in the center of everything there is to do in town definitely worth a stop and it even is the site of a geocache.

Nothing too special on its own, but the dragon statues are iconic and symbolic to Ljubljana. Definitely worth a quick stop and a photo if you’re exploring the city.

Impressive dragons decorate this Art Nouveau bridge that was built between 1900 and 1901 and the first with a reinforced concrete structure in town. The story goes that the dragons are tied to the Greek myth of Jason and the Argonauts, who are said to have founded Ljubljana and slain a dragon nearby.

Beautiful large green dragon statues built in 1901. Locals say tshe dragons wag their tails when a virgin crosses the bridge (a fun old joke among residents).

It's a bridge with Dragons on it. We counted at least 20. Good place for a photo. Some people may say its crowded but I'd say it has atmosphere with people stopping to take photographs or passing by as they head to the nearby cafes and restaurants.

An absolutely fairytale-like spot, with scenery that feels almost Swiss — at times even Norwegian. The valley is breathtaking, with sharp color contrasts and sweeping mountain views. There’s plenty of space to walk around or ride a bike, and the road leads straight to the waterfall trail, which is an easy 15-minute walk. Definitely a place where you’ll want to linger, because the views are just unreal.

10€ per car for entry. The various parking spaces within the valley are then included. Worth it if you take the time to enjoy the valley. Take the time to walk the various trails, have some local food and see Rinka Waterfall at the end, or perhaps climb further to the mountains from there. Saw some cute highland cows too.

Very nice place, if tou fo with car you have to pay a ticket, we paid 10 euro for 2 persons and car, there is also a verry nice waterfall. You have to go on the trail fkr 15 20 min but deffinetly worth it

You pay 10€ to access the national park, you can't walk outside the path, no bikes, everything super strict and that's super fine. But in the middle of the national park, near Hotel Plesnik, a really bad stink coming from open dumpsters and an open sewer.

Loved the nature here. Everything looks so beautiful and organised. Will highly recommend to anyone who loves hiking.

Winter really gives different experience, really nice plce to visit, recommend it!

This place is perfect for relaxing and reconnecting with nature. Ideal spot for nature lovers.

We visited Mozirski Gaj during the May Day holidays. The day was made for enjoyment and a relaxed walk in the beautiful park. The park is clean and well maintained. Inside the park there is a cafe for refreshments. There is an entrance fee, but it's worth a visit. There are enough parking spaces around the park. Highly recommended for a relaxed walk at any time of the year.

We visited the park yesterday and had such a wonderful time! At first it seemed a bit small, but it turned out to be a truly fun and magical experience. I imagine it’s even more beautiful in spring or during winter when it’s decorated for Christmas. The place has a fairytale charm and is definitely worth a visit. The only downside is that tickets can only be purchased with cash, as cards are not accepted. Other than that, it was an amazing experience!

A very beautiful and well-maintained park. Entrance is paid, in my opinion nine euros. Only cash is accepted for payment. There are many beautiful trees and flowers on the territory of the park, everything looks very beautiful. There is a cafe on site, but payment is only in cash as well. There is an observation deck, as well as a picturesque river.

I was there in winter, and the Christmas lights display was incredible! Thousands of lights creating a fantastic world, nice for adults and children.

Very nice place to visit with lots of flowers and different trees. There's also a tower made from wood which you can climb to get a better view of the park. The entrance fee for adults is 6 euros per person.

Pitoresque place that can be a whole day adventure for family and pets welcomed. It has a well placed benches and tables so you can enjoy a quick meal. There is a wending machine with homemade local ice cream. And you can also see different exhibitions and old houses, windmills, etc. that are from this area.

After the first time beeng here i have to say this is one of the most beautiful places to visit! It is very easy to find it, it has a lot of road signs and also there are a lot of parking places in front. When you step inside there are a lot of things to see and enjoy! The threes, the flower gardens, the stone fontains, the river Savinja.. it is very awesome! Highly recomend!!! 💫

A phenomenal experience that I will remember for the rest of my life. The museum is exceptionall. It is located in a special part of an active mine. The guide is outstanding, explains everything very well, and adds extra value to the whole experience.

Really nice, authentic experience, more then 150m down by elevator. We recommend. Photo is forbidden. Path is dry, no water, no mud. Tickets is better book before, English exhibition is only few times a day. You will receive a snack too 👌

Absolutely amazing place to go! The tour was really extraordinary and I'm happy for being part of the coal miners team for a moment. It's definetely a must see place in Velenje! And nearby is the beautiful lake, so be sure you jump there too.

Was there twice in a week with a group of camp kids. Excellent museum, really fascinating, it gives a great look into the life of coal miners. One thing that bothered me a bit was that both guides spoke really fast and sometimes you couldn't follow their explanation. Ten to twelve people in a group is, by my opinion, maximum number for a good experience. All in all, a thing very much worth taking time for.

Visited the Coal Mining Museum, I honestly didn’t think I would enjoy it, but I did! Once you get your tickets, your guide will tell u to get a locker and out all your belongings inside. Your bags, purses and phones. Once that is done, you’ll be asked to put on a mining jacket and a hard hat. They also give you a hotdog and juice to eat as a break. Each piece of food goes goes in each pocket. An elevator takes u down and that’s when the tour begins. Lots of walking, story telling from our guide. No pictures are allowed in the mining tour. I actually loved it. It’s so different! It’s a must see.

Amazing Experience!!! Best museum i have ever visit. You will find out how it is beeing coal miner now and how it was in past.

The coal mine is great. Yes! You go down 130m and actually visit a coal mine. Sadly you can't take any pictures as the flamable gases, coal and phones don't mix well

Starting point for one of the best hike trails uphill. Two trails, both ending in city Skrad. On one trail (left one) is a nice waterfall you can see. On other one (longer one), you can visit a cave. Best to go hiking when there is water, since you walk near small Creek. I highly recommend for active vacation.

Mountain hut close to the Zeleni vir spring, waterfall and Vražji Prolaz (Devil's Passage). Available by car, offers food (stw and drinks. Tickets for Zeleni Vir and Vražji Prolaz are 25kn for each, or 10 for children.

Nice mountain hut and starting place for Zeleni vir (15 min) or Vražji prolaz (30 min) if you do not have time to walk all around from Skrad (2.5 h). Decent and favorable menu choice with must-try blueberry štrudla. Good choice for kids because of many walking bridges which gives them motivation to move forward 😀

Kind people, good food, spectacular place. The road is in a very bad condition through the forest, be careful and drive slow!

Speaking of the restaurant because I didn't stay the night in one of the rooms... Although the nature surrounding it is magnificent, therefore the location itself is great, with a small "playground" next to it, the terrace really needs a bit more of attention. A good sweep at least, parts of the terrace look like they weren't used in ages, almost resembling a hounted house. Tables were frequently left as they were left by the guests when they went away, dirty dishes, full ashtrays etc (quite a sight) whit the staff simply walking by it all, making it harder to find a decent spot to sit. Speaking of ashtrays asking for it or not makes apparently no difference as we got non in either cases. The food was ok, the prices are ok, the staff was ok and answered any questions we had. It would have been a 4 out of 5 if it was kept just a little cleaner. Removing weird ?furniture/construction? parts and "leftovers" left in the corners would have helped already 😂 P.s. try avoiding a trip to the toilet!! 🤢

Very good trip, the waterfall is amazing, specially spring, but dont go up until the railway... That part is very boring. Go to the waterfall and turn Back, dont do the whole round. The pancakes are amazing.

A perfect spot to enjoy the nature. You can hike, you can grab a bite or you can wash your feet in the freezing river. Don't miss this out if you are in the area.

This was a superb museum. The layout of the rooms still complete with furniture and China ware. There was an exhibition dedicated to Alma Karlin, which was superb. She was an incredible lady who travelled soli around the world between 1929 and 1927. The Celje ceiling was splendid to see. The €9 entrance was good.

Great museum, one of the best archeological collections in Slovenia. The ruins of the Roman city in the basement and the collection of the Counts of Celje are really worth the visit.

Nice architecture

This museum is incredible. It holds old remains of roman road once leading into old city of Celeia (now Celje). Museum also holds fantastic colection of counts of Celje. I really recomend visit this place.

When in Celje you have to visit this museum, underneath it has old ruins of old city Celeia. Beautiful and really educational place

Celje Regional Museum has been collecting, protecting and representing the cultural heritage of Celje for over 130 years. A comprehensive view of the history and culture of the Celje region is offered in two central city exhibition venues (Prince’s Mansion and the Old Landgrave’s House) An exciting one among the permanent exhibitions is the Paths of Alma M. Karlin exhibition. Here, you can travel with the most prominent Celje-based traveller in history. In the Old Landgrave’s House, you will see the breathtakingly mysterious Celje Ceiling painting commissioned by the Counts of Thurn-Valsassina at the passage from the Renaissance to the Baroque. The Old Landgrave’s House is the second (and the original) Celje Regional Museum’s exhibition area. The Renaissance style in which it is built is evident by its vaulted outer corridors running on two floors where the original owners, the Counts of Thurn-Valsassina, once walked. Along its southern facade, the Old Landgrave’s House overlooks the Savinja River.

You can buy a joint ticket for this museum and the regional one. Interesting and worth a visit during your stay in Celje.

Amazing castle with lovely views. The best part of visiting was a man who was explaining the history of print and did a preformance how in the past people were doing it. For 8€ you could get your personal cusomized souvenire! Be careful on the forest path that leads to castle - it is not as easy as they say!

Worth a visit. The ticket price is appropriate. You should go early in the morning, then it's hot, or go in the afternoon when the temperature low. The torture dungeon is interesting. The view from the tower is superb. Parking is free.

Beautiful old castle. The staff were really fun and had games etc. for the kids. They loved running around the grounds. We were there around 10am and it was really quiet. But when we were leaving (after 1.5hrs as there is so much to see) it was getting more busy. The view from the very top is incredible, the story behind the castle just as good.

Climp up to the mountain and you'll see the beauty of Celje and big part of Slovenian history. The castle isn't very big but it's an absolutely recommended place to visit. You can drive up, but climbing is an adventure itself.

Celje's Castle has a wonderful viewing points over Celje, hills and fields. Castle has a long history and you will be able to find here also historical artifacts. Really worth visiting and nice thirsty minutes walk path from Celje's center.

A long drive up, but worth it. Very reasonable entry fees with discounts for children and the older ones Lots to see. Well worth the visit

Less crowded than othe Slovenian castles but just as (or maybe even more) interesting! Nice staff and breathtaking surroundings.

Great place for the kids and worm welcome from the stuff,we spend more then 3 hour,it just looks easy but it is not

Great place, my first time hanging from ropes :-) Staff is thorough and kind.

For everyone! 4 difficulties, blue one is really hard if you like challenges.

4 levels of skills and experience. from adult to children. perfect familly getaway

Great exercise in nature. For whole family and afternoon.

The best place for sport and fun.

One of the best andrenalin park.

Very pretty and relaxing.

Beautiful church with gorgeous gardens. The herb garden is amazing!

Beautiful old monastery and which houses the oldest pharmacy in Europe! Honey direct from the source and homemade salves and other remedies following age old recipes are available.Very beautiful, and a lovely chocolate shop around the corner.

Beautiful building with an interesting history that can be read on the website. There was a wedding being hosted on the day so we weren't able to visit inside but the cafe across the street is good and do a good selection of drinks. Their homemade lemonade is worth trying, very refreshing

Beautiful church, must see if you're in the neighbourhood. The farmacy, which is within the monastery, offers a range of herbal medicine to treat whatever may be causing you trouble

Nice, well maintained monastery. It has a beautiful herbs garden, an old apothecary where the monks sold their plant based medicine, and a not-that-big church, but richly ornamented with ornaments fit for a cathedral.

Beautiful Monastery, nature, herbs and tea. A must see. Chocolate store nearby. ❤️

Great spa but avoid the food, we had a club sandwich where the chicken smelled terrible and we had to send it back. Would go again for a relaxing day but lunch at the hotel or elsewhere.

Great Spa experience! Price of a day pass on the weekends is 60€ per person and they provide you with a bathrobe and two big towels in a big bag so you can carry it around, I loved the bag for convenience (bring your own pool slippers!). The indoor/outdoor pool area is really nice, the water was really warm and everything was nice and clean. We were here on a Saturday and were worried that it would be crowded but that wasn't the case. The sauna area is what I enjoyed the most. With the Orhidelia pass we could also enter the Termalia spa zone. There are 5 saunas in the Orhidelia section and at least 10 more in the Termalia section. There were also a lot of organized programs in the saunas (relax program, towel whirling show) which was a nice surprise. The cold pools after the sauna were my favorite. In this whole sauna area there are no bathing suit allowed, so if you're shy this might not be the place for you, but you get used to it pretty quickly. The staff is also very polite and helpful.

Unfortunately very unfriendly personal at the reception. They denied us the access to the wellness center Orhidelia, unjustified, on the 6th of January because od some public Holliday in Austria. It is not obligatory to reserve wellness access upfront, particularly not on normal working week days as today in Slovenia. We drove 110km, took a day off work and bought the access to the wellness upfront online. I fell miserably and unfairly treated at the reception. Do you deny access also to your Italian, Austrian and Croatian guests? I will never return as a guest again.

The best wellness place in all Slovenia and wider. Very wide choice of saunas, specially like the adult part, no small children to anoy you. Hygiene at very high level. I highly recommend it. Its very nice for couples. My favourite one is the music pool where you can hear music while you lay in shallow water. Just amazing. For sure will wisit it again.

The spa’s interior is beautiful but for this price is way too expensive. It has two floors but you can only use the ground with swim dresses on, the first floor is the NAKED area including the saunas and some pools. When we bought the tickets nobody warned us and this information is not available on the internet as well. Many people change to naked in front of you even on the first floor. Sorry but I don’t want to see it! The pools temperature is okey 38celsius but there is no any warmer pool not even the jacuzzi. For a 5 star, premium spa I expected more!

Most aesthetic wellness in Slovenia.

Perfect place to relax! So many saunas and the design is really luxurious .

The place is overhyped. We went there for a weekend with children and didn't have such a great time. The prices for the quality of service, available entertainment and cleanliness are too high. Swimming pools were way too warm for summertime and we had to exit them to actually cool off. Restaurant has a horrible quality of food with unspeakably low quality of ingredients. This goes for the restaurant which is accessible from the pool area, not the one in the hotel. Of course you're not allowed to bring in your own food. The whole area could use a proper cleaning because there was dust and other dirts all around the place. Purchase of family ticket is overcomplicated process because you need to make a reservation online which is then canceled upon arrival and you're issued a discounted family ticket. The family ticket isn't available online for purchase. They extra charge access to every separate area which is confusing for users and increases the price significantly, especially if you're coming with a family. There is no good road to access the location and you need to travel over Hills and country roads which have their fair share of ups and downs left and rights. Children who have sensitive stomachs will not appreciate the trip.

Great for small kids. There's a lot of entertainment for them - various pools, small slides and kids club. Not so great for older children, over 6 or 7 years, let's say. The best thing for them are the arcade room and rock climbing wall in one of the pools. Only two slides that are on the second floor. There's a sand pool. Sounds weird but it's a lot of fun for toddlers. It's a heated shallow pool full of sand and toys for them to play. Food is great. Lots of local dishes and ingredients. They have a pizza oven so there's various pizzas every night. The staff is great. Prices are ok. We stayed at Breza hotel, which is ok. A bit older with small rooms and bathrooms. I would give it 4,5 stars if i could. I didn't like the fact that you have to leave the indoor pool to another room so you can enter the outdoor pool. There are two sand pools, one didn't work the entire time, so the water in there was really cold. You had to go through it to get to the one that was working and since they are adjacent, kids would sometimes accidentally fall in. Also, the shower for washing the feet after leaving didn't work. Those are easy fixes so it didn't bother us. Didn't visit the Orchidelia part, because it's adults only. Overall, a very fun and modern spa.

Here everybody can find something interesting to do - swimming, watergames, toboggans, cycling around (some ways are separated, check which), nice castles nearby, shops and caffe bars are not missing. Very nice place for famillies. Personally I prefer the new swimming pool in hotel Breza, new facilities, nice floors, 4 pools with different temperatures, clean toillets, caffe and drink machines, automatic food ordering… Check some places around - Podcetrtek willage with castle above and perfect sight, Rogatec with nice castle, Rogaska Slatina - an old famous Spa, Smarje pri Jelsah with high Calvary and nice museum below…up to your choice.

Very quiet, very warm and very calm experience. I will come back again for sure. Waitress is very kind and friendly, and whole experience is very positive.

Unfortunately, our experience with the food was far below expectations. The problems are evident already in the quality of the ingredients, which appear to be chosen at the lowest possible level. Even the coffee did not meet the most basic standard. Overall, the gastronomic offering leaves a very poor impression and significantly undermines the overall experience. I believe it is urgent to redefine both the quality and the concept of your food service in order to match the level of service and ambience you otherwise provide.

Beautiful place,nice countryside,reasonable prices,kind to kids

My family and I stayed at this thermal hotel last year and again this year. The quality and variety of breakfast and dinner, as well as the room service, had slightly declined compared to last year, but we still had a wonderful time. The staff, just like before, were friendly and respectful.

Absolutely amazing castle, with friendly and professional staff! I performed my first European piano concert here! I will always treasure the memories! Thank you for making my dreams come true!

Small but very interesting museum, history of Slovenija in short, mostly ordinary stuff, used by ordinary people in every day activities. Informative overview of the activities of the Slovenian resistance movement in the fight against fascism during World War II.

Brežice Castle in Slovenia is an ideal destination for families and tourists. The castle has remarkable paintings and murals. The museum inside offers a look into different eras with its collection of artifacts. Although some parts are closed off, the wealth of culture and unique artistry make Brežice Castle a worthwhile visit for all.

It is one of the few castles in Slovenia that still looks like a proper castle inside. The main hall with the fresco walls was definitely the best. But of course it is still a museum filled with old and modern artifacts in the other rooms.

The castle was a beautiful one in architecture and structure. On the 1st floor, a temporary exhibition and on the 2nd floor permanent exhibitions offered beautiful stuff based on various subjects. The main hall has fabulous paintings on the ceiling and walls. In my opinion, the beauty of those paintings was not shown obviously in the photos.

An extremely pleasant castle with a rich collection of artefacts. It was also very interesting for the children - I highly recommend it!

Really great to visit,… even interactive and fun for kids. €6 entrance suits the museum

Bistro Castel was marvellous. We had such a wonderful dinner, everything homemade, freshly cooked, and you can really taste the love. Excellent choice to enjoy your dinner here. We come back for sure!

Well, we have been surprised by this place (our first visit) as the combination of flavors in the dishes was very finely paired, especially in the leek soup. Menu is not long, but it seems they pay attention to detail in every dish. Vine list - short but better then average. The service was excellent and fast. You have to make reservation ahead.

Very delicious!😋 But not the cheapest restaurant, just okay, but please don’t make it more expensive! Very chilly and nice atmosphere! Great music not too loud and not too quiet and nice people!

If you are in Karlovac or near Karlovac or you are just thinking of Croatia - this is your sign to visit this place. We were there in the evening with all the lights and the stars above you. Service is quite professional and it makes you feel in the right place. Beer on tap is their produce which is amazing. And then comes the food...unfortunately we were not hungry and got only an appetizer but what an appetizer it was! We got the pate with butter, caramelized onions and focaccia. Everything is made in house and the pate comes in a jar and it is so smooth and buttery that I am salivating even while writing. All the desserts around us looked incredible and will definitely be back to try them all :)

Had a delicious and fresh caesar salad. This is a historic place also with night armor on display. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

We’re coming back here again and again: the food is delicious, and the ambience of the castle is really majestic!!

Located within a small and authentic castle, this restaurant has a classy atmosphere and service. The food is delicious and special (you won't find any traditional Croatian food on the menu if that's what you're after). Prices are decent (not cheap) but the flavor more than make up for that.

Great place to spend the day. Very practical with the ones with children or even for freshly in live couples. The lake behind the castle offers a wonderful 2 hours walk through a beautiful nature. The place is majestic. There is a beautiful restaurant underneath the castle to recharge your batteries. Also s free parking. Enjoy

truly one of best ways to spend a day. the castle is beautiful on the inside and out and the walk around the lake is super long but so worth it. it is definitely a 1.5 hour walk, maybe even 2 hours if you walk slow. highly recommend going here because the experience is really something if you love being in nature

It's so amazing, I love the castle and the lake is lovely too, if you have time and energy to tour around the whole lake I would definitely recommend that but it will take you 2 hours if done at slow walking pace, some 12000 steps or more. Lovely day trip, entery ticket to the castle costs 10 euro for adults, lake is free.

A fairytale castle surrounded by forest and a peaceful lake. The interiors are beautifully preserved, giving a real sense of noble life centuries ago. The walk around the lake offers stunning views and a relaxing atmosphere. Well maintained, easy to reach, and perfect for a quiet romantic getaway or a scenic day trip.

Beautiful castle that is well reconstructed. In quiet region of north Croatia. For 10 € it has a lot to show visitors. Truly exceptional view from the highest floors.

We totally loved our visit here! Could have stayed here a lot longer but we were on a tight schedule. Beautiful on the outside as well as the inside. A must see! So much history in each room.

Takoscan Castle is located at the north of Zagreb. It is around 75 kms from Zagreb. We took a car on rent to go to this place. It is towards Maribor from Zagreb. A quaint serene place. The entry ticket is 10 euros for the adults. There was no waiting time for taking the ticket. We have to climb up to reach the castle. The castle overlooks the lake which is a man made lake.

Driving back to Slovenia, we stopped to see the Roses Designer Outlet. It’s a beautiful place, clean and love the colors on the buildings but it has very little stores left. The ones that were opened had great deals on. Bought a super cute top from S. Oliver. It did have a small seating area restaurant open, which was nice. Great place to let the kids run around and burn off some energy!! Since it’s so empty. Open 7 days a week including the weekend from 10am to 8pm. They did have beautiful roses growing everywhere.

It is a nice place but not very visited. No fast food restaurants and only one coffe shop/bar.

Most stores was closed, just few choices

More than half shops are closed, abandoned... Few more are closing. The building itself is pretty old...not maintained good...

The place is beautiful and clean - great.. BUT this is supposed to be an OUTLET with cheaper prices. I found things priced the same as they were in the regular store. It’s actually more affordable to wait for a sale in a certain store than drive all the way here..

Roses Designer Outlet is located just next to the border between Croatia and Slovenia. We visit it with whole family to dress kids, my wife and myself. It is a great opportunity for a stop during your long journey to Adriatics or back home before long traffic jam at the border. One can go for shopping or have a lunch break in the Roses' restaurants. The Outlet has a lot of clothes and footware options to choose from: designer shoes collection, dresses, suits, jeans or sport ware are represented here from most of the trendy brands. However one should notice that shops availability quite often depends on a season and year and some of them are closed when you just need them! Thereby I am giving only four points from five to this Designers Outlet. In any case the Roses is must to visit destination with moderate prices for disigners ware) I wish you to have fun here!

Minimum shops... I can't recommend to visit this place

Medvedgrad was the first castle ruin I’ve ever visited, and it left a good impression. While it’s not a huge complex, the views, atmosphere, and history make it worth the trip — and entry is only 8 euros, which is very fair. 🏰 The Fortress: It’s a small, well-preserved medieval structure with scenic views over the city and forest. There’s a chapel, outer walls, towers, and a few indoor areas. We explored it in about 1 hour and 30 minutes at a slow and calm pace. 📍 Accessibility: There’s no public transportation directly to Medvedgrad. The nearest bus stop is about 2 km downhill, and the walk back up would have been too much for my friend, who has foot problems. That’s why we chose a taxi, which was absolutely the right call. I wish there were a shuttle or dedicated access — but considering the narrow road, I understand why buses don’t go all the way. 🚕 Taxi story: We arranged for the driver to return after our visit. He came back as promised and even helped us figure out why we couldn’t access the Police Museum (reservation required), then took us to our next stops (zoo/intercity). He was very kind, and we gave him 50 euros total as a thank-you — he deserved it. 👥 Crowds: We arrived at opening time and had the place almost to ourselves. Only when we were leaving did a group of school kids show up. It was very quiet and peaceful — perfect for photography and relaxing exploration. 📷 Overall experience: Very calm and not too touristy Beautiful nature surrounding the castle Worth a visit if you want something scenic and not overwhelming Took about 1.5 hours to enjoy everything Very fair price at only 8€ ✅ Final verdict: If you're in Zagreb and want a small, historical site with great views and peaceful surroundings, Medvedgrad is a great choice — just be sure to arrange transport in advance if you don’t want a steep uphill walk.

It was an interesting place in the hills above Zagreb about 20 minutes by car from the centre. It was a winding narrow drive and there was not much parking and while I didn't mind paying the 8 Euros to enter the grounds were a bit unkept but inside of the buildings were interesting with good views over Zagreb.

I took a tour, with guide. Super experience. The road is beautiful, throuh the forest. Castle/fortress is on top of the hill with great views over Zagreb abd surroundings.

A beautifully renovated castle, with a wisely presented history. A nice souvenir shop and a nice lady who showed us everything in detail - what, how it works, where to press, where to look. There are well-kept toilets on site. I highly recommend it.

A beautiful old structure with guided displays inside that tell you some fascinating facts about the history of the region. From the top you can enjoy the 360 degree view of Zagreb, Sljeme and the surrounding hills.

Modern reconstructed ruin of castle, it's full of interactive educative exhibits, very interesting, kids loved it, adults too. Everything is very well put together.

Medvedgrad is a historical monument, a medieval town located on the western side of the mountain and Park of nature Medvednica Zagreb Croatia. Built in the 13th century, it was an important fortress, and today it is a popular excursion destination and a venue for various cultural events.

Not the best lake you could ever see but it’s not bad to chill there in front of the lake and enjoy the sunset

If you love to stay active — whether you’re a jogger, roller skater, or runner — this is the perfect place for you. With scenic routes, smooth paths, and plenty of open space, it’s a welcoming spot to move, breathe, and enjoy the outdoors.

Gorgeous place. Great place to hike, bike, run, roller blade or just chill. A must place to visit if you are in Zagreb

Excellent weekend day getaway for couples and families. Beautiful nature scenery but not many other activities, for better or worse. I prefer not which means less people and less noise and you keep peace just for yourself. Lots of water areas around which means mosquitoes are biting like crazy. Come prepared at summer time.

It was a very beautiful and relaxing experience for sure. I walked for 2 hours enjoying the sun in a cold winter. Then, I stopped at the pizza house.

I never get tired of going to Jarun. This is an awesome demonstration of what can be done in a city with a good planning and the purpose of making the city friendlier to its inhabitants. Lakes are very extense, with at least three large artificial beaches that are frequently visited in summer time. Cafes and restaurants are very well distributed around all lakes. Wonderful place for jogging, walking or riding with a bicycle. Different kinds of courts are available for sports like volleyball, basketball, skating, etc. There are also many regatta clubs in the lake. Small open cabins or huts to go on sundays with grill facilities nearby. Toilet services are available all around the park and showers are also available near beaches. Many swans dwell in the lakes and are a spectacle to visitors. One of the wonderful places of Zagreb, a must-see in particular if you are in the city in spring, summer or fall time.

It was fantastic for a hot summer day (37 C) to visit the lake. A particular highlight would be the smaller lake, with the "island of love" in the middle. It looks less man-made and has a lot of green sights when you're swimming. In good days you can see fish swimming alongside you and touch water lilies within the greater depths. One warning I would add is that doing a full round trip hike through the lake gets you to the nudist beach without much forewarning. Sensitive people beware (lol) If you're wondering whether Bundek or Jarun is the right choice - definitely skip Bundek and go to Jarun.
