Predjama Castle
Feel free to explore at your own pace and discover
Stop: 1 h 30 min - admission not included


Predjama Castle is a stunning sight, wedged into the mouth of a cave atop a 123-meter-high cliff. The area below also features an array of secret tunnels carved into the stone, and visitors can explore some of them on foot during the summer months. The castle’s rooms are filled with medieval artefacts, including armor, weaponry, and furniture (opening hours are 9:00-18:30). Travelers flock to the castle in part due to its most famous resident: Erazem Lueger, Slovenia’s Robin Hood. Visit to learn more about Lueger’s famous resistance under siege, during which he used the secret tunnels as exits.

Skocjan Caves

Experience jaw-dropping natural drama at Skocjan Caves.
Exploring Skocjan Caves allows you to step into a mystical world rife with geological drama. From the roaring underground river to the deep caverns and narrow walkways traversing vast chasms, the area is famed for its unforgettable natural beauty. The caves are also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognized for their massive underground canyon, which the Reka River carved out over centuries. This canyon is one of the largest of its kind in the world, and travelers can witness its depth from the paths clinging to the cave walls above the waters. Compare the peaceful views of the surrounding Karst landscape to the drama of the world below. The caves are open from 10:00 to 15:00.
