Kranj: Capital of the Slovenian Alps

I was visiting Planica ski flying competition this year and decided to stop at Kranj. The city, although small, offers nice opportunities to see something. If you are not sure what exactly to do, visit the Tourist Information Center and see what your options are. The guys are very helpful, I would say. Additionally, the shop has plenty of items you could see and buy. I would recommend spending 3-4 hours in this town, especially if the weather is nice. It is nice and quite relaxing.

Easy bus journey from Bled. Kranj Tourist Office is in a beautiful old townhouse right beside the main square. It was the perfect place to get advice and info. Had a wonderful day in Kranj thanks to the staff in here.

We realised that the real world had been left behind when we wended our way through the narrow historic streets of Kranj on its high promontory. Our expectations were not high as we passed through the commercial suburbs on the approach road lower down. We covered a lot in a short time thanks to the friendly welcome we received at the Tourist Office. Rather than just giving us a fist full of pamphlets, we were asked where our interests lay and how much time was available. That approach made a lot of difference.

Kranj is definitely worth a day trip or a stop along the road between Ljubljana and Bled.

Kanjon of Kokra river – Nice walk through near-wilderness in the heart of a city. This is an interesting walk up a river canyon below the city of Kranj, it's somewhat odd to be walking up a wooded canyon when there's a significant city up over your head somewhere. The path follows the river up to some clear pools with trout in them, it makes a nice break from seeing towns and cities, and is an interesting walk even on a rainy day.

It was our big pleasure and privilege to be first guests in this special residence. We absolutely loved it every single moment spent in it. Our favourite is the library corner of the great poet, Simon Jenko, and we had a go in reading some of the books. The kids loved it and the texts written on the walls. We were happy because of the great location in the center of Kranj. The staff were so kind and helpful. We just love Kranj as we first met here. Until the next time!
