Family Day Trips
Planina pod Golico — an ideal starting point for family-friendly day trips. Whether you’re looking for easy nature walks, cultural experiences, or stunning alpine lakes, there’s something for every member of the family nearby.
1. Daffodil Meadows & Golica Hut
In late spring, take an easy hike from the village to the famous daffodil meadows, where hillsides bloom in white. For a longer outing, hike up to the Golica mountain hut (Koča na Golici) — a rewarding stop for a snack and panoramic views. Great for active kids!
2. Lake Bled (35 min drive)
A classic Slovenian icon, Lake Bled is perfect for families. Rent a boat to row to the island, visit Bled Castle, or just enjoy a relaxing lakeside walk and a slice of cream cake (kremšnita). The lake is stroller-friendly and full of small adventures.
3. Lake Bohinj & Savica Waterfall (1 hr drive)
For a more peaceful alpine experience, visit Lake Bohinj, located in Triglav National Park. Swim, paddleboard, or hike to the beautiful Savica Waterfall — an easy, short trail with steps and a viewing platform.
4. Kranjska Gora & Zelenci Springs (45 min drive)
The charming alpine town of Kranjska Gora offers family activities year-round: an adventure park, cycling trails, and the magical Zelenci Springs nature reserve. In winter, it’s a great spot for beginner skiing or sledding.
5. Jesenice & Stara Sava Museum (10 min drive)
For a bit of history, head to Jesenice, where the Stara Sava Museum offers insight into the town’s ironworking past. It’s interactive and engaging for school-aged kids — plus, there’s a great playground nearby.
6. Forest Picnics & Nature Play
Even without leaving the village, Planina pod Golico offers calm forest trails and open pastures — ideal for nature games, picnics, and exploring the outdoors at your own pace.
With breathtaking landscapes and charming nearby towns, Planina pod Golico is more than a quiet alpine retreat — it’s a hub for unforgettable family day adventures across Slovenia’s most beautiful regions.
