It is one of the country's best-known old strongholds, long associated with the Auersperg noble family, and its massive walls and towers make it a worthwhile stop on a day trip. It lies in the Osrednjeslovenska region, an easy drive from Ljubljana on the road towards Velike Lašče.
Mali grad is the site of a small castle near the village of Planina in the Primorsko-notranjska region, in the karst country of inner Slovenia. It is a quiet stop for those interested in the region's historic places and pairs well with exploring the surrounding Planina area. Plan it as a short walk from the village rather than a full day out.
Planina Cave is a karst cave in the Notranjska region, near the village of Planina by Planinsko polje. It is a water cave, where underground rivers flowing through the karst meet and emerge as the Unica river. The cave lies a short drive from Postojna and suits visitors interested in the Notranjska karst beyond the better-known show caves.
The Tolminka is a mountain river in the Goriška region of western Slovenia, and this point marks its spring area in the hills above Tolmin. It is a quiet spot to see where clear Alpine water emerges before flowing down toward the town. Reaching it means a walk on mountain terrain north of Tolmin, so sturdy footwear is sensible.
Tolmin Castle, also known as the Castle on Kozlov Rob above Tolmin, is a fortress ruin on the ridge of Kozlov Rob above the town of Tolmin in southwestern Slovenia.
Pivka Jama is a karst cave in the Primorsko-notranjska region of inner Slovenia, where the Pivka river flows underground. It belongs to the same karst landscape as the better-known caves around Postojna, a few kilometres to the south. Expect a walk down into a collapse doline and along underground passages, so bring sturdy shoes and a warm layer.
Weaver's Cave (Tkalca jama) is a karst cave in the Primorsko-notranjska region of inner Slovenia. It is a natural feature of the limestone landscape typical of the Notranjska karst, worth seeing for anyone interested in caves and underground water. It lies in the countryside south of the Ljubljana basin, so plan it as part of a day exploring the surrounding karst.
Zelške jame is a system of collapsed karst caves in the Primorsko-notranjska region, near Rakov Škocjan. The Rak stream flows through its passages, and parts of the cave roof have fallen in, leaving natural openings and daylight inside the cave. It makes a short stop on a walk through the Rakov Škocjan valley, not far from Cerknica.
