Day trip to the countryside

Discover the beauty and flavours of the countryside in Ljubljana's surrounding area. Take a short scenic hike to the top of a lookout hill and taste the local cuisine.

This trip will take you to the village of Topol, better-known as Katarina nad Ljubljano, which is a popular day-trip destination offering everything that the countryside on the edge of Ljubljana has to offer: magnificent scenery, warm hospitality, and exquisite culinary experiences.

Visit the Pr' Porent outdoor museum and view its collection of historical farm tools. You will then take a short hike to a lookout peak topped by a Church of St James and end your day at the Na vihri traditional 'gostilna' restaurant, where you will taste homemade schnapps, and enjoy a well-deserved dinner of soup, Slovenian platter, a glass of Slovenian wine, and 'štruklji' rolls as a dessert.
