It stands at the edge of the old town and houses the regional museum, making it an easy stop on a walk through the city streets.
Pyramid (Piramida) is a hill rising directly above the centre of Maribor in the Podravska region. From the top there is a view over the city, the Drava River and the surrounding countryside. It is a short uphill walk from the northern edge of the old town, easy to combine with a stroll through Maribor.
Hrastovec Castle (Grad Hrastovec) is a historic castle in the Podravska region of northeastern Slovenia, in the hilly countryside north of Maribor. It is worth a stop for its setting among the Slovenske gorice hills and as an example of the region's manor architecture. It suits a short visit combined with a drive or walk through the surrounding vineyards and villages.
Lake Trboje is a reservoir on the Sava River in the Gorenjska region, formed behind the hydroelectric dam near the village of Trboje. Its quiet banks suit an easy walk or a spot of birdwatching. The lake lies a short drive from Kranj and Medvode.
Lisičje Mansion (Dvorec Lisičje) is a historic manor house in the Osrednjeslovenska region of central Slovenia, a short distance south-east of Ljubljana. It is a modest stop for anyone interested in the country's rural manor architecture. The building lies in the countryside just outside the capital, so a visit fits easily into a half-day outing from Ljubljana.
Ljubljana Castle is the medieval fortress on the hill above the old town of Ljubljana, in central Slovenia. From its walls and lookout tower there are wide views over the capital's rooftops and, on clear days, toward the Alps. The castle can be reached on foot by paths from the old town or by the funicular railway.
Ptuj Castle stands on a hill above the old town of Ptuj, one of the oldest towns in Slovenia, in the Podravska region. It houses a regional museum, and the castle terraces look out over the red rooftops and the Drava River. The walk up from the town centre is short, along a cobbled lane.
Krka Cave (Krška jama) is a karst cave near the source of the Krka River in central Slovenia, in the Osrednjeslovenska region. It is a short detour for anyone exploring the upper Krka valley and its springs. The cave lies in the hilly countryside south-east of Ljubljana, close to the village of Krka.
