AUTUMN IN KRANJ
Experience Kranj, the capital of the Slovenian Alps
Welcome to Kranj! Halfway between Ljubljana and Bled, you’ll find a charming city that offers you the best of both worlds – tranquillity of nature and a culturally rich city centre.
Take a walk through autumn-coloured forests, along riverbanks or through the streets of the city centre with their 6000-year-old stories – Kranj’s duality of Alpine flair and urban flaire offers something for everyone.
In Kranj, autumn is the time to explore the magic of nature, the treasures of a rich cultural heritage and many events that offer a wonderful break for both first-time visitors and those who love to return.
We invite you to enjoy an autumn break and some cultural inspiration in the embrace of the Alps.
