Free tour with local guide
We will walk along the panoramic path which F. Prešeren called the "altar of Gorenjska" and if desired we will also visit the Vintgar gorge, formed over thousands of years by the beautiful river Radovna, taste the noble Viljamovka, Smrekovec, Malinovec and other delicacies of a local spirits producer. If the weather conditions allow, we prepare a herbal spread from cottage cheese and herbs we meet along the way. We will learn about the tradition of processing pear tepka and why it was planted along important roads. What all this, at first glance imperceptibly tree, meant to the ordinary man!
We will also touch women's topics and jointly ask for wisdom at the church of St. Catherine, who celebrates her name day in late autumn.
Where did the border between "Prgarji" and "Kraparji" take place, where do local customs and habits come from. All this you will learn, if you join us on an interesting and undemanding tour.
Admission to the Vintgar Gorge is not included and is at an additional cost. If you've been to the gorge before, we can skip it. Spirits tasting is free, purchase is possible on site.
