Žirovnica

Žirovnica lies in a green valley on the edge of the Karavanke Mountains, where forests fringe fragrant meadows. It’s rich literary, beekeeping and archaeological heritage is an inexhaustible source of ever-new experiences and wonderful stories.

You will find them everywhere – on the mountain paths and mountain meadows that lie in the Natura 2000 protected area, in the mysterious village at the top of Ajdna, guarded by giants, in the birth houses where the greatest pen masters in Slovenia were born and created, at the village troughs where you can fill up your drinking water, at the beehives that are a special feature of our folk heritage, in a cup of homemade tea and among the hospitable locals. In a green destination, local stories are proudly told and preserved for generations to come.
