Urban culture off the beaten track: a walk along Celovška street

These areas, neighborhoods or streets are often the pulsing hearts of cities and offer experiences that are usually the perfect foil to the more sanitised and predictable ones in the more central locations. Luckily, Ljubljana has been following suit. One specific area comes to mind, a stretch of Celovška street that is home to various galleries, bars, clubs, shops and all-round cool places that call for at least an afternoon’s worth of exploring.

Rakitna Forest and Archaeological Learning Trail (789 m)

The rest of the trail is mainly flat or rises and falls gently. Starting point Rakitna (27 km from the centre of Ljubljana). There is a macadam car park by the lake (up to 2 hours: 1 euro; whole day: 2 euros). From the car park, walk towards the hotel, opposite which there is a large information board with a description and map of the Roman Wall Forest and Archaeological Learning Trail (Gozdna in arheološka učna pot Rimski zid) and a hiking waymark indicating the direction to take.
