Below you may find many popular destinations you can easily reach by train.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cental Sava Valley (Zasavje)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mount Kum (1,220m): Also known as the Triglav of Zasavje, Mount Kum is the highest peak in the Sava Hills. There are two different trails leading to the peak \u2013 either through \u010cebulova Valley or via Dobovec \u2013 both of which begin right next to the Trbovlje train station across the Sava Bridge. Because of a significant elevation gain, the ascent is rather challenging.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kal Hill (817m): After reaching the town of Hrastnik by train, follow an easy hiking trail to reach the hill, which is situated between Mrzlica (1122m) and Klobuk (890m).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lisca Hill (948m): Alight the train at the Breg station and continue your journey on foot. Lisca Hill offers a superb view of the Sava Hills, Inner Carniola (Notranjska), and part of Lower Carniola (Dolenjska), and is the only summit in Slovenia equipped with a weather station that has a Doppler radar (weather surveillance radar). When the weather is clear, you can even see as far as the Julian Alps with the highest peak in the country, Mount Triglav.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Upper Carniola (Gorenjska)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mount Golica (1,836m): After leaving the train at Jesenice, continue northwards on foot to reach Mount Golica. The reward for reaching the summit is a beautiful view of the West Karawanks and Julian Alps together with the Triglav. Golica is one of the most known peaks in the Karawanks mountain range, and is at its most popular during May when its slopes turn white with daffodils in full bloom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Littoral (Primorska)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sabotin Hill (609m): From the Nova Gorica train station, continue your journey on foot to ascend this beautiful mountain ridge which rises steeply above the So\u010da River, overlooking the city of Nova Gorica and Solkan on the border between Slovenia and Italy. Despite its height, the hill is a perfect spot for viewing the Julian Alps, So\u010da River, Gorizia Plain (Gori\u0161ka kotlina), Karst Plateau (Kras), Adriatic Sea, and the Friuli Plain (Furlanska ni\u017eina). &nbsp;Scenic views aside, the hill is also an important historical site riddled with bunkers and caverns from WW1, when some of the fiercest battles took place on its slopes. At its foot stands the Solkan Bridge, which was built in 1906 as part of the second rail connection between Western Austria and the port of Trieste. With an arch span of 85 metres over the So\u010da River, it is the longest stone bridge among train bridges built of stone blocks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mount Kobla (1,498m): Situated between Mount \u010crna prst (meaning \u2018black soil\u2019) and Mount Sorica (Sori\u0161ka planina), the summit of Mount Kobla rises directly above the rail tunnel connecting the towns of Bohinjska Bistrica and Podbrdo, and can be reached on foot from the Bohinjska Bistrica train station. Those who ascend to the top can enjoy a spectacular view of \u0160kofja Loka and the Cerkno Hills in the south, and the Julian Alps to the north.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u0160tajerska (Styria)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Leave the train at Maribor and travel by city bus to the Pohorje Cable Car (Pohorska vzpenja\u010da). After finishing the cable car ride, the sky is the limit \u2013 Mount Areh (1258m), Ru\u0161ka Cottage (Ru\u0161ka ko\u010da), and Mount Three Kings (Sveti trije kralji) are just a few of the many destinations you can choose from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Information on train timetables and fares can be found in the <a href=\"https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/en\/timetable-finder\/\">timetable finder<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-255cdd03 pattern-additional-info\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading m-0\">Further information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Visit a train station with a ticket office;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Visit one of our InfoCentres at the train stations in Koper, Ljubljana, Celje, and Maribor;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Call our toll-free number&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"tel:+386808111\">080 81 11<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;(for calls made from Slovenia), or dial&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"tel:+386 1 29 13 331\">+386 1 29 13 331<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;(for calls made from abroad);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Send an e-mail with your question to&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:potnik.info@slo-zeleznice.si\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>potnik.info@slo-zeleznice.s<\/strong>i<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div><div class=\"potni-after-content\" style=\"text-align: center;margin-top: 50px;margin-bottom: 50px;\" id=\"potni-2156644802\"><div id=\"potni-56499211\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/vozovnice\/dodatna-ponudba-in-storitve\/portal-moj-vlak\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Oglas za portal Moj vlak.\"><img src=\"https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/portal-moj-vlak-desktop.jpg\" alt=\"Oglas za portal Moj vlak.\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/portal-moj-vlak-desktop.jpg 1051w, https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/portal-moj-vlak-desktop-300x76.jpg 300w, https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/portal-moj-vlak-desktop-768x194.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1051px) 100vw, 1051px\" class=\"no-lazyload\" width=\"970\" height=\"250\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":36848,"parent":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-36847","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/36847","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36848"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/potniski.sz.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36847"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
