Cable Car & Shepherds' Village: Half-Day Private Alpine Tour to Velika Planina from Ljubljana
Discover the Charm of Velika Planina: A Half-Day Tour of Alpine Beauty, Traditional Herdsmen’s Huts, and Scenic Adventures!
Join Us for a Half-Day Tour of Velika Planina!
Step off the cable car onto a green plateau dotted with hundreds of wooden shepherds' huts — a working alpine settlement that's barely changed in centuries. Perfect for travellers with one free morning in Ljubljana who want real mountains, real culture, and zero crowds
Highlights of the Tour:
- Cable car ride — glide up from Kamniška Bistrica with the alps unfolding beneath you, then connect to a chairlift that drops you right onto the plateau.
- Shepherds' village — wander among hundreds of traditional wooden huts, one of the largest preserved herders' settlements in Europe and still in use today.
- Preskar Museum — step inside an original hut turned mini-museum to see how the herders lived, slept, and made cheese here for generations.
- Trnič cheese tasting — try the small, hand-shaped hard cheese that herders once gave as a love token, made nowhere else in the world.
- Medieval Kamnik — finish with a short stroll through a pastel-coloured old town set right beneath the Alps.
