This is an active holiday for people who like it quiet. You stay at our 230-year-old farmhouse, the Dormouse house, in a quiet village on the edge of the well-known Lake Cerknica. The house is fully renovated and equipped with old furniture; with just enough modern commodities to ensure a pleasant stay. The thick stone walls ensure an absolutely quiet atmosphere. Here, you can, as we say in Slovenia, “sleep like a dormouse”.

Every day, you go on day trips in the surrounding hills and forests, in the company of our guide. We like to reduce the use of vehicles and on the first day, we will be walking from the Dormouse house through the Dinaric forests. In the afternoon, we reach the cave Križna jama, which is known for its underground lakes. After a one-hour visit to the cave, we will ensure transfer back to the Dormouse house.

The second day we will be going higher up, as we head for the highest mountain of the Notranjska region! From the peak, which is a botanical reserve, we have a wide view over most of Slovenia.

On the third day, your guide will take you to the valley Rakov Škocjan. Once a cave with an underground river, it is now a beautiful valley through which the small river Rak flows.

The tour program includes accommodation, all meals, guiding and transport. Every day, we have lunch in the form of an outdoor picknick. For this, we take locally produced ecological food with us in our backpacks. Dinners are served at a nearby ecological farm.

On our walks, we cover 10-15 km each day. We follow unpaved forest roads and undemanding paths. In some places, we will go steep up- or downhill, but the trails are safe and do not involve climbing.
