GREEN 
Kočevsko is wild. But nice. It’s a secret forest of Slovenia, as 80% of the area is covered with forest. Deep in the vast woods are six areas of primeval forests, among them the Krokar, which has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. The vast and well-preserved forests are home to many wildlife species, including large predators, which are only rarely seen living freely in the wild in Europe today.
Explore Kočevsko’s unique attractions. Visit the Škrilj bunker, a fascinating relic from the past. Experience the thrill of bear watching and observe these majestic creatures. For cycling enthusiasts, Kočevsko offers scenic trails catering to all levels, allowing you to enjoy breathtaking views and fresh air.
Savor the flavors of Kočevsko with its exquisite cuisine, bringing the forest to your table. Delight in rich, hearty goulash and taste the forest goodies. Don’t miss the O, Kočevsko! brand – discover certified dishes, produce and products faithfully created by friendly and enthusiastic locals.
