The city
A village of about 1,500 inhabitants in the upper Sava valley, Slovenia’s main mountain resort. First mentioned in 1326, it preserves in its center the Gothic Church of the Assumption and the Liznjekova domačija house-museum. Around it are Lake Jasna, the Zelenci reserve, the Planica ski jumps and the start of the Vršič pass road, which crosses the mountain toward the Soča.

The local experience
Two artificial lakes at the confluence of the Velika and Mala Pišnica streams, south of Kranjska Gora, with a bronze statue of Zlatorog and views of Prisank and Razor.
Small wetland reserve near Podkoren where groundwater springs into an emerald-green lake and forms the Sava Dolinka. Wooden boardwalks and an observation tower cross the area.
Valley south of Rateče with Planica Nordic centre: eight ski-jump ramps, including the Gorišek brothers’ flying hill, a museum and a zip line that runs along the jump profile.
The highest road pass in Slovenia, at 1,611 meters, between Kranjska Gora and the Trenta Valley. The 50-curve road was opened by Russian prisoners in World War I; the Russian Chapel is along the route.
An 18th-century farmhouse in central Kranjska Gora converted into an ethnographic museum, with painted furniture, an open-hearth kitchen and an exhibition about the writer Josip Vandot.
