Kamnik's Unmissable Alpine Wonders

Kamnik serves as the primary access point for the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, characterized by the high-mountain plateau of Velika Planina. This area preserves one of Europe’s oldest active shepherd settlements, featuring distinct oval-roofed huts. The list covers the 12th-century ruins of Stari Grad, the glacial valley of Kamniška Bistrica with its limestone gorges, and various alpine lodges. Architectural highlights include the Preskar Museum and the 15th-century Church of St. Primus and Felician, known for its extensive medieval frescoes.
