Sevnica

Sevnica is a treasure chest of experiences. It is located in the north of the Posavje region, a place where mornings are closer to the sun. Here, the Sava River comes out of the Zasavje canyon and winds in broad strokes among fertile fields, which are guarded by the Posavsko Mountains to the left, and the vineyard-dotted Dolenjsko Hills to the right.

Sevnica Castle is one of the most beautiful castles in the Posavje region. The medieval castle overlooking the old town invites you to unique experiences, such as a mysterious evening tour led by Countess Mathilde. For stunning views, head to the 948-meter-high Lisca, a popular excursion spot. Its gentle slopes also feature an easy educational trail, ‘Jurkova učna pot’, where you can learn about biodiversity.

A Blaufränkisch vineyard is sunning on the castle hill slopes. This wine and the Sevnica Salami are two of the traditional flavours of the destination’s rich cuisine, which you can experience in full in the Gostilna Repovž Inn or at the Blue Franconian Festival. You will discover even more local delicacies on the Slovenia Green Gourmet Route, one of Slovenia Green routes, connecting only certified Slovenia Green destinations. This one passes through Sevnica and is a tasty blend of gastronomy and adventures.
