MMM STORIES: STRLE FARM

One of the first and still very important ice cream customers was Darja Končarevič, who still serves The Strle Ice Cream by the scoop at the Bazilika café next to the Ljubljana Križanke. In the summer months, you can also get a scoop or two at the Ljubljana Chocolate Factory in the Old Town, but otherwise the ice creams (in addition to the established Pozaršek-Strle farm outlets) are mainly available in shops such as Rifuzl, Hruška and Zrno do zrna in Ljubljana, Zlata ptička in Kamnik, and similar shops in Žalec, Koper, Radovljica, Gozd Martuljek, Bled, and many more.

True heroes of Ljubljana: where to observe the bats

And you definitely want to spice up your visit and include bats spotting? I’ve been told that the best time to do this is in summer at sunset. You want to take a walk by the river, because lots of bats go there to feed. Water attracts bugs and bugs attract bats.

5 kids' favourite playgrounds in Ljubljana

If you turn right, it will lead you to the big parking space, where I recommend parking, since it’s very affordable and there is also a small playground. 2) Šmartinski Park The location might be somewhat macabre, since it stretches between the busy Šmartinska street and Žale Cemetery, but the recently opened playground and park is anything but. It is big, bright and lively. The only problem is that in the summer you might miss the shade. Every kid will find something to play with here: they have a huge slide, small slides, rope climbing, swings, water toys, which get them splashing around … Prepare extra dry clothes.
