Planina Hill near Vrhnika is one of the most popular hiking destinations
in the Ljubljana area. After you conquer the 400 m ascent and climb up the
lookout tower, you are rewarded with the most beautiful view. On clear days the
view extends all the way to Mount Triglav in the Alps. At the lodge
you can enjoy refreshments as you plan your next hike.
Of interest: The lookout tower at the top of Planina Hill is 22 m high
