Kuren is an isolated village on the slopes of Planina Hill near Vrhnika.
It consists of only a few farms, of which only one is inhabited (the Kuren
Tourist Farm), and a lovely Saint Nicholas’ Church (‘Sv. Miklavž’). The church
comes to life only once a year (as do many of small churches around Slovenia);
it is a protected national cultural heritage site.

family walk.
- Access: we start the hike to Kuren Hill at ‘Stara Vrhnika’
