Stay in Slovenia
Velika planina – Velika planina, Kamnik

Velika planina

Sleep in a real herdsmen's hut, above the clouds and far from everything.

Velika planina is one of the largest high-mountain pastures in Europe and a unique herdsmen's settlement. With Planina Escape you stay in a traditional hut: morning views of the Kamnik–Savinja Alps, hikes and grazing herds by day, and a starry sky without city lights at night.

  • Authentic herdsmen's hut
  • Alpine views
  • Hiking from the hut
  • Starry skies and silence
