FRIENDLY COUNTRYSIDE

www.slovenia.info

The diversity offered by the Slovenian countryside: use it to escape from your everyday

routine. Whether you choose a farm holiday or a wander through the rural environment,

discovering the beauties of nature. This contact with genuine folk culture and unspoilt nature

will touch your heart. You will relax and start to feel yourself again.

Taste the countryside

Listen to the whispering of the wind, stirring secret desires. See the treasures of untouched nature. Taste the variety of life at every step. Feel the beauty of limitless exploration, the exploration of love. Touch your essence. Feel. Feel Slovenia with all your senses. Experiences that follow the promptings of the heart.

We are happy to present our new tourist farm catalogue, in which you will find ideas and hints for visiting tourist farms across Slovenia. The catalogue allows you to book your holiday on a chosen tourist farm yourself and, by offering detailed descriptions of excursion farms, wine cellars and Karst »osmice«, it helps you to plan your excursions, special occasions and organize business encounters.

A visit to the Slovenian countryside is a truly unique experience, because the moment you cross the threshold of a rustic home, you

become part of a story that you also, willingly or not, help create. In a close contact with nature, with country folks and their culture, wisdom, customs and traditions, you can relax and get in touch with your inner self again.

We cordially invite you to visit the Slovenian countryside, where everyday life still resists the merciless hustle and bustle of urban environments and time passes more slowly.

Venčeslav Tušar, President of the Slovenian Tourist Farm Association

Dear tourist farm guests!

Friendly countryside

Feel harmony with nature

Allow yourself to escape from your every-day routine and surrender to the embrace of green nature. The smell of freshly mown grass, the touch of crystal-clear water, the taste of a freshly picked apple and a view of the velvet-green meadow on the next hill: all this will put you in tune with the energy of luxuriant nature. Time goes slower in the Slovenian countryside. A visit to one of Slovenia's over four hundred open farms can be the starting-point for a walk in the un-touched natural surroundings of the Triglav National Park, white-water rafting on the Soča, an exploration of the rocky Karst be-neath the Mediterranean sun, a bicycle tour of the byways of Štajerska and Koroška, a stirring river-ferry ride along the Mura in Prekmurje, or a wander through the forests of Dolenjska. Reach out and touch the diver-sity of green experiences.

Feel hospitality

Slovenia is a small country full of diverse experiences. The Slovenian countryside is where you can still hear genuine Slovene dialects, see traditional architecture and en-joy old rural customs. In the traditional rural environment you can still find the quality of a full life and feel the importance of tradi-tional values. Whether the occasion is a local holiday or simply everyday tasks about the farm, you will relish the positive energy of open-hearted people, sing old Slovene songs and laugh along with the healthy rustic hu-mour. Sincere, warm-hearted people will serve you the finest produce of their gardens and fields, their cellars, smokehouses, store-rooms and kitchens. With a smile of wel-come they will accept you among themselves and share with you a part of their daily exist-ence. Enjoy the slower pace of life, abandon yourself to the harmony of the co-existence of man and nature, and feel the genuineness of the Slovenian countryside.

Feel the variety of traditionalflavours

No rural festivity – or ordinary day for that matter – is complete without locally pro-duced, home-made food and drink. Some of the dishes you will encounter most fre-quently on Slovenia’s farms include tradi-tional cabbage, bean and potato dishes. Spoil yourself with a variety of sweet and savoury strudels and sample various types of home-made bread. In the Karst you can also try the local Karst ham. And every farm will offer its own version of potica, a cake filled with walnuts, poppy seeds, raisins, cream cheese, herbs or even crackling. This wealth of entic-ing aromas and flavours is complemented by the white wines of the Štajerska region, Cviček from Dolenjska or Teran from the Karst. And to finish with, a drop of home-made fruit brandy or delicious mead. Feel the value of nature’s gifts and enjoy the gen-uine flavours of home-made food and drink.

Feel the life of the countryside

Wake up to the sound of cowbells and bird-song and the smell of freshly-baked bread. Start the day actively at daybreak and try your hand at mowing grass, milking cows and other chores in the cowshed or barn, or join the locals at work in the fields. Then take a well-earned rest in the pleasant shade of a nearby hayrack. You can vary your days in the country with horse riding or cycling along forest trails, and in the evening you can gather round the stove in the farmhouse and join in with traditional rural games. On special occasions you can get a taste of rural festivities. Join the friendly locals at grape harvest or at the time of the pig slaughter and learn old folk dances. Prepare yourself for a variety of experiences of the countryside, from the stone court-yards of the dry Karst, to the wooden build-ings of the Alpine dairy farms in Gorenjska, vineyard cottages in Dolenjska or the mud-plastered, straw-thatched little houses of Prekmurje and Štajerska.

The coastal area and the Karst are co-vered with olive trees and vines, but beneath the surface are countless karst caves, one of the most beautiful facets of our planet. Between the mountains of the Gorenjska region are deep gor-ges with crystal-clear water, and the characteristics of the landscape mean

that the traditions of mountaineering and Alpine dairy farming are alive and well here. Dolenjska is the land of Cvi-ček wine, thermal springs and extensi-ve forests and the region is also famous for its traditional woodenware. Štajer-ska is best known for its wide range of fine wines and as a region that offers

endless opportunities for recreation. Koroška, the cradle of the Slovene nati-on, also offers a wealth of opportuniti-es for mountaineering and hiking. The river Mura, with its tradition of floa-ting mills and lumber rafts, is a central element of the Prekmurje region.

The Pri Plajerju farm stands near the forest on a terrace above the Soča River with a beautiful view of the valley and the mountains. In the evenings, you can sit outside and listen to the roar of the river and the murmuring of the wind while your hosts tell of the traditions and customs of the Trenta Valley. The Pretners raise sheep and goats, so you can enjoy mutton and kid dishes and try sheep and goat milk. They also have excellent salami, you can spread minced lard on bread, and vegetarian dishes are also available. Holidays along the Soča River are active holidays, and you can choose from hiking, mountain touring, climbing, fishing, hunting, horseback riding, whitewater rafting and kayaking, and paragliding–all in the immediate area of the farm. The Triglav National Park information center is only a kilometer from the farm, and the alpine botanical gardens are four kilometers away.

The Černuta tourist farm, which is also a typical dairy farm, is situated in the Koritnica river valley, under magnificent mountain peaks Mangart and Jalovec, offering a spectacular view of the nearby rock wall called Loške stene. The farm offers a variety of sheep's milk products such as different kinds of cheese and cottage cheese, and they also serve lamb dishes. The hosts can take you on a tour of their dairy. Accommodation is available in fully equipped modern apartments. Children can play in the playground or enjoy the company of cats and sheep, which are plentiful on the farm. The farm's location makes it ideal for those who enjoy peace and quiet as well as for those who prefer active holidays. You can hike in the Julian Alps, visit one of the many waterfalls in the vicinity or the fortresses of Predel and Kluže, sv. Višarje/Monte Lussari. If you come to the farm in winter, don't miss the adrenaline-packed sled run from Mt. Mangart, and you can also visit the nearby ski center across the border in Italy. A walk in snowshoes and backcountry skiing are also a lot of fun, but only for those who are in excellent shape.

The owners of the Žvanč tourist farm, the Koren family, live in the small village of Drežniške Ravne at the foot of the mighty Mt. Krn. Their organic farm has been known as an excellent producer of dairy products from time immemorial. Since they keep cows, sheep and a local breed of goats, they can offer their guests various dairy products, different types of meat, and during your stay at the farm you can also enjoy fresh vegetables and herbs that grow in the home garden. The farm is situated in the immediate vicinity of the Triglav national park. The wonderful natural setting is also characterized by the people who live there. Your hosts will let you enjoy a peaceful vacation, but if you wish, they can also advise you about various activities and introduce you to traditional distinguishing features of the farm. There are many possibilities for walking, hiking and climbing in the surrounding area. The nearby river Nadiža is great for swimming in summer, while the Soča river is known as ideal for rafting among adrenaline sports lovers. There are also numerous possibilities for horseback riding, cycling and paragliding. You can see artifacts from the First World War and the famous Soča/Isonzo Front in the Kobarid Museum and visit the reconstructed front lines in the outdoor museum…

The Jelinčič farm is located away from the main road on a terrace above the Soča River near the village of Soča. The head of the family plays the zither and is an amateur artist who takes inspiration from the breathtaking surroundings, as does everyone who visits this special part of Slovenia. The barn holds 100 sheep and supplies the table with lamb and sheep milk, cheese, and cottage cheese. A specialty of the kitchen is freshly-caught trout prepared with sheep cheese, and dried meat products, salami, pancetta, ham, and baked potatoes with cottage cheese are among the many items on the menu. If fifteen guests or more are interested, they can learn the art of making cheese under the instruction of an expert. Active vacations in this region include hiking in the mountains, whitewater rafting and kayaking on the Soča River, hang gliding and paragliding, mountain biking, and in winter, of course, skiing. When there is enough snow in the valley, the small rope tow beside the house is activated, and one can ski on nearby Mount Kanin into the very late spring.

The tourist farm is located in the village of Robidišče, the westernmost village in Slovenia. The farm specializes in cheese making and organic farming and also respects the rich local culinary heritage. You can taste local specialties such as frika (a potato dish), polenta with cheese, štruklji, as well as dairy products such as sheep's milk yogurt with fruit topping, sheep's milk cheese and feta cheese. They also offer their guests bread made from organically-grown wheat ground in their own mill. The bread is even more delicious when it accompanies a dish made from lamb or chicken grown on the farm. It also goes well with vegetable stew. Since the hostess has a way with children, the farm places great emphasis on quality holidays of families with children as well as children on their own. Both children and adults can take part in different programs that make them connect with nature through dynamic activities. All programs are created in cooperation with the participants. The farm is an excellent starting point for visiting the nearby towns of Kobarid, Čedad/Cividale, Bovec and Tolmin as well as for hiking in the mountains (Stol, Matajur, Mia). In the summer months you can go for a swim in the crystal clear water of the Nadiža river, just a half an hour's walk from the village. A day trip to the villages in neighboring Italy is also an interesting option. Finally, Robidišče is definitely a great place for all those who seek peace and simplicity.

At the edge of a village with a marvelous view of the Drežniško plateau and the surrounding peaks (Krn, Kanin, Matajur, Stol . . . ) lies a farm that is the home of Kranjc family. When they combine their knowledge and skills, they can tell guests much about the customs and traditions of the valley, and, of course, bring to the table the old traditional Drežnice dishes. The vicinity of the farm offers countless possibilities for excursions and sightseeing points of interest: you can enjoy the tourist trail through the Kosoška chutes, the Kobarid Historical Trail, numerous waterfalls, the homestead of the Slovene poet Simon Gregorčič, the World War I museum in Kobarid, the Zapikraj alpine meadow where milk is processed in the traditional manner . . . At the right times, you can participate in many events—the Drežnice Carnival is the best known—while sports enthusiasts and lovers of unspoiled nature and a healthy lifestyle will find pleasure here year round.

You will find the Pri Lovrču organic farm in the beautiful little village of Čadrag, which lies seven hundred meters above sea level surrounded by the Tolminsko hills in Triglav National Park. The farm produces milk that is turned into the local Tolminc cheese and into salty and sweet cottage cheese at the village cheese dairy where if you wish, you can watch the work being done. Along with cheese and cottage cheese you will definitely enjoy their pear brandy, cider, and must, all organically produced. All their products and produce carry the “Biodar” trademark. If you wish, you can also buy homemade cheese, fresh and salty cottage cheese, seasonal vegetables, pear brandy, and walnuts. You can spend a nice holiday or a relaxing weekend at the farm, which offers accommodation in 2 apartments. Upon previous agreement the owners can also serve you traditional lunch as prepared in the mountains around Tolmin. The farm can receive 60 dining guests in summer and 25 in winter. Beautiful nature invites you to visit Mount Razor, the source and chutes of the Tolminka River, Javorca, Kobarid, and many other places since the surrounding area is full of natural sights worth visiting.

An asphalt road takes you to the top of a hill from where there is a beautiful view over the Soča Valley, the Cerkljansko mountain range, Baška grapa, the Julian Alps, Goriška Brda, and the Kanal hills. Here stands the secluded Široko tourist farm. Your hosts are a four-member family who will offer you pleasant overnight accommodation, homegrown farm food (their specialties include dried meat products and a wide variety of hot meals), and advice on how to best spend your free time. You can hike in the mountains, descend into caves and abysses, go paragliding and mountain biking, or join the hunters. In winter we recommend downhill skiing on Mount Kanin, cross-country skiing, and ski touring. The archeological site at Most na Soči, the Kobarid and Tolmin museums, Kozlov Rob, and more await your visit regardless of the season.

The village of Zakojca lies on the edge of the Primorska region on the border between the Tolmin and Cerkljansko regions high above the Baška grapa gorge on the slopes of Mount Kojca. On the edge of the village stands the Tušar family’s “Pri Flandru” farm. They work the farm in harmony with nature so there is no lack of homegrown food and items such as pršut (prosciutto), želodec, salami, sausages, bržola, minced lard, homemade bread, and other goodies from Marija’s kitchen. The Tušars love animals, and along with cows they also have horses suitable for riding and carriage rides. In addition to taking riding lessons and trail riding, guests can also enjoy skiing on the slope at the farm or at the nearby Cerkno ski center. In summer you can go bicycling, hike on Mount Kojko (1,303 m), Porezen (1,632 m), Črno prst, and Rodica, and enjoy fishing and hunting. The area is rich with natural and cultural points of interest to visit such as the Divje Babe archeological site, the Kobarid Museum, the Franja Partisan Hospital, the mercury mine and museum in Idrija, and many others.

You will find the farm in the village of Straža (also known as Želin) on the main Idrija–Tolmin road, by the confluence of two rivers, the Cerknica and the Idrijca. The farm is situated on a small plain, far from the noise of the road. It is an excellent starting point for day trips (Posočje, Goriška Brda, Postojna, Kras, Piran, Ljubljana, Bled, Bohinj) or short excursions into the nearby hills (Blegoš, Porezen, Kojca). It is also popular with anglers since the nearby Idrijca is a great source of enjoyment and relaxation. The nearby towns of Cerkno and Idrija and the surrounding area offer a variety of cultural, natural and historical sights of interest. In warm weather you can swim in the large pool next to the house, hire bicycles or play with your children in the meadow or on the playground equipment. In winter you can take advantage of the well-equipped Cerkno Ski Centre. Evening saunas and soaking in the massage tub are even more enjoyable after a hard day's skiing. The farm also offers numerous gastronomic delights. Home-made jams, honey, spreads of various kinds and fresh-baked bread will have your mouth watering even at breakfast. Excellent cured meat products, home-made sausages in the winter months, savoury strudels of various kinds, and also simple peasant dishes are available on the menu. Local speciality žlikrofi (a kind of ravioli) with various accompaniments are always available. The Želinc farm is also a member of the European "Houses of Tradition" network, whose symbol represents homeliness and tradition and a recognisable character within a complete infrastructure.

If we say that the farm lies within Triglav National Park, you can almost imagine it: among meadows beside a forest with a view of the mountains. And in truth, the Radovna Valley lies between Mount Pokljuka and Mount Mežaklja seventeen kilometers from Kranjska Gora and the same distance from Bled. The female side of the family makes sure that pleasant aromas waft from the kitchen (their specialties include homemade pork and sausages in winter, žganci, buckwheat krapi, dry sausage preserved in minced lard, smoked ham), while the men make sure you will have fresh honey on your bread and that you won’t be bored. They will take you—sometimes via hay wagon—along the Cultural Heritage Trail, you can hike to the valleys of Krma, Kot, or Vrata (Peričnik Waterfall), and of course the farm is an ideal starting point for climbing in the Julian Alps and on Mount Triglav.

The farm is situated in one of Slovenia’s most beautiful villages on the sunny side of Karavanke Mountains with a view of the Julian Alps. At the Pr’ Potovčn’k farm, they boast that they prepare medicinal herbs that cure even the most stubborn problems, and the father is especially proud on his selection of liqueurs and brandies, which he bottles elegantly for you to take home. They will gladly take you on a tractor ride to the nearby mountain pasture or invite you to join them in haymaking. If you are inclined toward mountaineering, you can climb the nearby peaks in the Julian Alps (Mount Triglav) and the Karavanke Mountains (Mount Kepa). Nature lovers can seek out peace and quiet in the Vrata and Krma valleys, while bicycling enthusiasts can ride to Kranjska Gora and Planica or through the Radovna Valley to Lake Bled.

Črni Vrh was once renowned for its cottage industries (barrel making, bucket making, woodenware), but now it is oriented toward tourism and farming. The Črni Vrh plateau is a popular excursion point, and its small ski center and trails for cross-country skiing and sledding are particularly inviting. Visitors who stop at the Pr’ Mark farm are offered dried meat products typical of Črni Vrh (also for sale), roast pork with žlikrofi (a sort of potato ravioli), and lamb in sauce. They can also rent skis and bicycles and get directions to the mountain lodge on Mount Javorniki, to Divje jezero lake, to Mount Belca, the Franja Partisan Hospital, the observatory, the interesting Klavže dams on the Idrijca River . . .

Situated on Medvedje Brdo (Bear Hill), the Šinkovc excursion farm has a marvelous view of the Julian and Kamniške Alps, the Karavanke Mountains, the Polhov Gradec hills, the Ljubljana barje moor, and the Trnovski forests. The hostess serves a variety of traditional delicacies such as homemade salami, pršut (prosciutto), pork, beef, rabbit, young goat, Idrija-style žlikrofi, and good white wines or homemade apple juice. The Notranjska and Logaška Mountain Footpath runs past the farm and there is a bicycle trail to the marshy Žejna dolina Valley where you can find a rare flesh-eating plant (Sundew). Places worth seeing nearby include Hotedršica, where you can see a mill built over a sinkhole and a traditional “black” kitchen, Vrhnika and the Museum of Technology in Bistra, Idrija with its mercury mine museum and lacemakers, and very close to the farm, the 11th-century Church of Sv. Katerina.

“Frčejeve,” the Zupan farm, is not hard to find in the village since it stands right opposite the Church of Sv. Jurij, while the new building with apartments and rooms is about one hundred meters away in the middle of a beautifully arranged farmyard with a large parking area. The old house contains an old farm room furnished with items from the 18th century. The hosts offer their guest all types of meat and dried meat products, minced lard, milk and dairy products—a specialty is their fruit milk shake—and for breakfast, fired eggs with homemade cracklings are the best. Guests enjoy exploring the Bled and Bohinj regions: in summer they swim in Lake Bled or Lake Bohinj, hike around Pokljuka and other peaks, and bicycle, while in winter they ski and skate on an indoor rink, and there is a sled run behind the house.

With its centuries-old tradition, the Repečnik farm is one of the oldest farms in Gorje; its main activity today is dairy farming. Wishing to present the beauty of country life to their guests, in 1993 the owners started receiving tourists in their wonderful Alpine-style house, boasting a portal stone dating from 1894, larch wood door and tuff window frames. The farm is situated on the outskirts of the old part of the village, near the main road connecting Bled and Pokljuka. It offers wonderful views of the Karavanke mountain range and nearby mountains, which hide a local gem, the picturesque Vintgar gorge. You can also see Bled castle and Mt. Triglav, Slovenia's highest peak. The owners keep cows, a riding horse, a dog, cats and chickens on the farm. Their guests can enjoy daily fresh milk and eggs, home grown vegetables, meat, dairy products and jams. Guests of the farm can enjoy bike rides in Bled and surrounding villages, the Radovna valley as well as across the Mežakla and Pokljuka plateau. Lake Bled is only some 1.5 km away, and it will take you five minutes by car to reach the center of the town of Bled and fifteen minutes to arrive to Pokljuka. The guests can also relax in nature surrounding the farm and enjoy snow sports and activities in winter. The farm has a big yard suitable for children's games and relaxing on the grass.

At the edge of the village of Studor on an elevation that offers a beautiful view of the Bohinj region and the surrounding hills stands the Pri Andreju tourist farm. The farmhouse and the 200-year-old but beautifully preserved kozolec (hayrack) are built in the characteristic Bohinj style. There is always plenty of milk, milk products, eggs, vegetables, and guests can prepare their own meals in the apartment or visit a restaurant in the surrounding area. It is only two kilometers from the farm to Lake Bohinj, which warms up enough in summer to provide pleasant swimming. The area around the lake and the village of Studor is made for mountain hikes and bicycling tours. In winter, it is only seven kilometers to the groomed ski trails of the Kobla ski center and a kilometer farther to the Vogel ski center, while Bohinjska Bistrica, only seven kilometers away, offers a vast network of cross-country ski trails.

Our farm stands on its own in the beautiful valley of Ravenska Kočna, on the edge of meadows and forests, with a wonderful view of the Kamnik-Savinja Alps. We are surrounded by mountain peaks on three sides (Kočna, Grintavec, Dolgi Hrbet, Mlinarsko Sedlo, Babe, etc.), and these themselves keep our guests coming back to us time and time again. We make every effort to serve healthy, local food. Our table offers a wide choice of cereal-based, vegetable and meat soups, local meat (beef, lamb, game etc.) and meat products, milk, dairy products, polenta, savoury strudels… and fresh pastries every day. In the evenings we chat with our guests about the history of the area and local sights of interest and/or plan activities for the next day, such as: mountain tours, excursions, boating on a nearby lake (Planšarsko Jezero) or gathering medicinal herbs, picking currants, getting the hay in and so on. Non-smokers only.

Jezersko, which lies in a wide valley between the rocky Kamniške Alps and the forested Karavanke Mountains, is known as a mountain climate tourist resort. It is distinguished by its mild alpine air, clean and rich with ozone. The organic Malek Tourist Farm lies on a secluded and sunny site below imposing cliffs of Makekova Kočna. It has a rich tradition in tourism since it received its first guests in distant 1907. They offer accommodations in standard or luxuriously furnished rooms with a marvelous view of the Kamniške-Savinjske Alps. Fortified by goodies from the farm kitchen, you can hike through an unspoiled mountain environment and spend an unforgettable day visiting remarkable valleys, Planšarsko Lake, Ovčja koča, Češka koča, and Čedca, Slovenia’s highest-lying waterfall.

The farm lies not far from the old town centre of medieval Škofja Loka. Next to the old farmhouse dating from 1786 stands a brand-new accommodation building, built in 2008, for the needs of farm tourism. Guests on the farm can choose between accommodation in modern rooms or apartments that are also suitable for disabled guests and families with children. You can relax in a small wellness centre complete with sauna and whirlpool bath. The farm is an excellent base from which to discover the charms of Škofja Loka. If you visit Škofja Loka and the surrounding area with the farm owner as your guide, you will learn far more than you would otherwise. She will be happy to organise guided visits to the surrounding area or further afield or to arrange a seminar (notice required). The area around the farm offers plenty of opportunities for active leisure: themed routes, hiking and cycling trails, fishing, skiing at ski resorts and numerous other activities. Crngrob, Križna Gora and Lubnik are all worth a visit, while in winter there is the nearby ski centre of Stari Vrh. The farm can also be a base for visits to Ljubljana, Bled and other interesting destinations around Slovenia.

The farm lies by the Poljanska Sora river, close to the mansion that once belonged to Dr Ivan Tavčar, the author of what is undoubtedly the most beautiful romantic novel in Slovene, Cvetje v jeseni (Blossoms in Autumn), and is open all year round. The farm is ideal for all who wish to spend their holidays in the peace and quiet of the unspoilt natural surroundings of the Poljanska Dolina valley. Accommodation is available in four modern apartments, two in the attic of the new building and two in the old granary (the farm once boasted a mill and a sawmill). Bicycles and canoes are available for hire, for a trip down the river Sora. Paddling down the Poljanjska Sora, which flows past the apartments just a stone's throw away, is a unique experience. The apartments are also a good base for those who enjoy hillwalking (the nearby Škofja Loka Hills), cycling, fishing and hunting, skiing (the nearby ski centres of Stari Vrh and Cerkno), ski touring (on the slopes of Porezen), climbing at climbing centres, and nature trails. And don't forget to visit the Tavčar Mansion, today a protected cultural monument.

The Boštjanovc farm with tourist apartments is situated in the idyllic village of Hotavlje, at the foot of the magnificent Mt. Blegoš. The owners keep cows, chickens and horses on the farm, among other reasons also because they are aware of the fact that guests appreciate homegrown food and farm products. During their stay on the farm guests can thus buy meat, eggs, potatoes and seasonal vegetables grown on the farm. If you would like to learn how to bake bread, your hospitable hosts will be happy to invite you to their kitchen and prepare it together with you. All those who enjoy outdoor cooking can use the outside grill. The farm offers accommodation in modernly-equipped apartments. Farm guests also have at their disposal a swimming pool and a children's playground. The farm is an excellent starting point for all those who opt for farm holidays in order to discover the beauties of Slovenia. Places of interest in the vicinity include Lake Bohinj, Lake Bled, the beekeeping museum in Radovljica, Ljubljana, Škofja Loka, Postojnska jama, Cerkno, wartime hospital Franja, Idrija... There are also many interesting sights in the vicinity of the farm that you can explore on foot or on one of the many picturesque cycling trails, which could be a great outdoor adventure for families with children. Spring is a good time for fishing in the nearby rivers.

The Ljubica farm owned by the Stanonik family is situated amid solitary meadows with a view of the Škofja Loka hills, the Karavanke Mountains, and the Julian Alps. The food, from the vegetables and milk and milk products to the meat and dried meat products, as well as the brandy, is all homemade. In the forest nearby, guests can pick blueberries and gather mushrooms, and there are several beautiful summits in the Škofja Loka hills that hikers can explore. In the winter, guests can go skiing on Stari vrh or in Cerkno, and for the less advanced skiers, there is a ski lift close by the house. The Stanoniks like taking their guests for drives in their carriage or on the hay wagon, and after a pleasant drive on a warm summer's day, a dip in the pool beside the house is an ideal way to round off the day. The Ljubica farm also specializes in organizing nature study programs for children.

The tourist activity of the Dolenc family started three decades ago when they furnished the first guest rooms in the 170-year-old farmhouse where the family of the writer Ivan Tavčar once lived. While this house was replaced several years ago with a new, modern house built to satisfy the needs of the contemporary guest, it remains similar to the old one and includes elements of the old architecture. A ceiling from the venerable year 1799, stone portals, and two 200-year-old frescoes The farm offers mostly homegrown food. Their culinary specialties are stews and štruklji, but they always cater to the needs and wishes of their guests. They make their own cottage cheese, butter, and jam, and bake their bread in the traditional open oven. You’ll also find homemade sausages and ham on the table, and father Pavle makes excellent brandy. In winter, most guests go skiing and sledding at the Stari vrh ski center, which is only 700 meters from the farm. In summer guests find peace and quiet walking along one of the marked paths or picking medicinal herbs in nearby Četena raven, while serious hikers can climb the Blegoš, Lubnik, Gora, Mladi vrh, and Stari vrh mountains. There are many trails for mountain biking as well as nearby tennis courts to enjoy.

The Podmlačan farm stands on a hill in the middle of meadows. The farm has existed for over 700 years and is still famous for producing everything at home, including bread. The food alone makes a visit to the Škofja Loka hills worthwhile. City children in particular will be amazed by how yellow the butter is, and time passes quickly beside the farm oven enjoying homemade sausages, minced lard, ham, brandy, and must. There are countless trails in the area where guests can walk or ride bicycles; they can also collect herbs and forest fruits, go fishing, and much more. In winter, there is skiing at the nearby Stari vrh ski center. Children can play in the barn to their heart's content, and the Debeljaks organize nature study field trips to nearby Jarčje Brdo as well as farm holidays for children who want to escape from their parents for a few days.

The Lavrič farm is situated atop a hill, with a view over the valley stretching all the way to the distant Kamniške Alps and Karavanke Mountains.

Na Hribčku is one of only a handful of excursion farms in this region, so it's well worth remembering if you want to visit this part of Slovenia. Set on a small hill, a hribček, the farm has a lovely view of the Dolenjska hills and the mountains along the Sava River. Guests can go for walks and gather chestnuts, blueberries, and medicinal herbs in the beautiful surroundings. You can see the lights of Ljubljana twinkling by night from the top of Janče, an hour's walk from the farm. If you prefer to ride, bicycles can be borrowed from the farm. Janče is also where the annual strawberry and chestnut festival is held. Other celebrations that are fun to participate in include Carnival, the May First festival, and harvest time. After all these activities, it's nice to relax at the farm and enjoy a wholesome meal made with nothing but the freshest ingredients, including all meat and milk products, vegetables, and fruit. The freshly baked bread is made from wheat grown on the farm, and you can round the meal off with a glass of good wine or brandy.

The Juvanija farm is located in one of the most beautiful alpine valleys in Slovenia and has a magnificent view of the mountains. You will enjoy all sorts of meat and dairy products, everything that the farms of the upper Savinja Valley produce. Sausage, salami, savinjski zelodec, milk, cottage cheese, and cheese are the basic morning dishes, joined by hot meat and vegetable dishes in the evenings. Beside the house is a ski lift and a toboggan run, and hikes of various lengths are the most popular summer activity. The source of the Savinja River is a five-minute walk away, and a little longer walk takes you to the Rinka waterfall. Several hours will bring you to Mount Okrešelj, Mount Olševa, the Potočka zijalka cave, or the mountain lodge above Klemenča jama cave. You can also enjoy all the natural and cultural attractions of the Savinja Valley by car.

The Lenar tourist farm lies at the heart of Logarska valley, which is known as one of the most beautiful Alpine valleys in the world. The Logarska dolina nature park is the most visited part of the Solčava district, which received the prestigious title of "European Destination of Excellence". The Lenar tourist farm offers the following services: bed and breakfast, apartment rental, facility rental for larger groups to use for meetings or seminars, sleeping in the hay barn and horseback riding.

Dairy and meat products for breakfast are delivered from nearby ecological farms. Buffet breakfasts are quite generous and tailored to the wishes of guests. The location of the Lenar tourist farm makes it an excellent starting point for hiking and climbing in the surrounding mountains, as well as hiking, jogging and cycling around the valley. In winter, there is a cross country skiing trail and a sledding slope (also by night) right next to the farm. The nearest ski lift is just 1 km away.

The silence that surrounds the first farm in Matkov Kot, lying in a sunny meadow in the midst of mountain pastures and with a magnificent view of Matkov Kot and Mrzla Gora, is marvellously complemented by the sounds of a zither coming from the farmhouse. The Gradišnik Farm still exudes the atmosphere of an age that many have forgotten, while keeping one foot in the present. Your hosts on the farm are well-versed in the cuisine of the Upper Savinja Valley, which includes specialities such as stuffed pig's stomach, goulash and mushroom soup. Farm produce available to buy includes hand-knitted woollen socks, St John's wort oil and freshly laid eggs. Families with children are welcome and the farm has its own children's playground. Pets are also welcome. Bows and arrows are available for hire and archery lessons are available. Toboggans are available in winter. The farm is an excellent base for mountaineering enthusiasts. Nearby peaks include Raduha, Ojstrica, Planjava, Mrzla Gora and Okrešelj. Group activities include visits to the poacher's hut and a walk with the poacher, and visitors can also take part in excursions organised in conjunction with Logarska dolina d.o.o.

Farms situated as high as the Perk farm is above Logarska dolina have the mountains in the palm of their hand. There is plenty of fresh air and peace in abundance. Here you can spend a very active holiday or simply relax and enjoy the singing of birds and the silence of the mountain forests. The food on the farm is all produced at home: vegetables, meat, and dairy products. They serve meals typical for the region, including delicious dried meat products, of course, and the hostess makes dumplings and žlikrofi, all served homemade juices. Everyone who decides to spend a vacation in the Logarska dolina area does so because of the fresh air and the hiking, whether just a few steps from the farm or to make your way with a knapsack on foot or by bicycle into the heart of the Alps. In winter guests go skiing or sledging.

The Žibovt farm lies just three kilometers from the Pavličevo sedlo border crossing beside a panoramic road in the middle of meadows close to a forest with a wonderful view of the Savinjske Alps. The farmstead includes a new house built in the characteristic rural style of the area, an older house and farm outbuildings, a fruit dryer, a stone mill, and an old water-driven saw mill. An enormous old pear tree flourishes in the courtyard. The Poličniks are organic farmers, and everything they bring to the table is home grown. There is plenty of milk, so they also sell homemade cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, and sour milk. Guests in search of peace and closeness to nature can enjoy both in good measure, both those who are happy with a stroll in the immediate vicinity of the farm and those who put on hiking boots and a knapsack to spend a day in the mountains.

This farm below Potočka Zijalka and Olševa lies at a height of 1,235 metres above sea level, in the midst of unspoilt nature, and is the highest-lying agritourism farm in Slovenia. Appetising smells waft from the farmhouse kitchen all year round and the entire family are herb and mushroom experts. Guests staying on the farm – and passing travellers – can feast on excellent savoury strudels, hotpots, ravioli, cakes of various kinds, stuffed pig's stomach, masovnik (made with flour and cream) and other specialities. The farmer and his wife like to fill visitors' knapsacks with home-made cheese, cottage cheese, herbal teas, mushrooms and honey. Many animals live on the farm but children will be especially keen on Toba, Mira and Črni ("Blackie"), the farm cats, and Laika, the farm dog, all of whom get on very well with young visitors. The farm is an excellent starting-point for country walks or for climbing the nearby mountains. The famous archaeological site of Potočka Zijalka is just over an hour's walk away. Olševa, Raduha, Peca and other peaks of the Kamnik–Savinja Alps are popular with climbers. You must also be sure to visit one of the most beautiful valleys in Europe: Logarska Dolina. Rafting on the Savinja is a must in the summer months, while a paraglider flight is a real adrenaline-boosting adventure.

The Rogar farm is the highest tourist farm in Slovenia. Situated beside a forest at an altitude of more than 1,200 meters, in fair weather it offers a panorama that reaches the Kamniške-Savinjske Alps with Mount Raduha in the foreground. Among their kitchen specialties they emphasize various cured-meat products, lamb, cottage cheese štruklji, and for dessert, blueberry strudel. Vegetarians are also well looked after. Peace, fresh air, and beautiful scenery are abundant at the farm. Medicinal herbs and wild mushrooms wait for visitors to pick them in the meadows and the forest. The charming Church of Sv. Duh is only a ten-minute walk from the farm, and it is about four kilometers to a refreshing spring of mineral water where you will find a small pot to scoop up the metallic-tasting water. On your way to Mt. Olševa you can stop by at the Potočka Zijalka cave, the first Paleolithic site discovered in Slovenia.

You will find the Ramšak Tourist Farm standing by itself on a sunny plain at the foot of Mount Olševa. On the farm you will be pampered with organically-grown vegetables that are offered as a side dish with all their meals. They will also look after those who swear by traditional Slovene cooking and will offer you žlikrofi, štruklji, žganci, and other local dishes. Health food enthusiasts should not leave the farm without the milk products, medicinal herbs, home-dried fruit, fruit juices, teas, and jams that the family prepares with special pleasure. Your hosts promise you genuine contact with life on a Solčava farm, and nearby there are around thirty natural and cultural points of interest and several climbing and hiking trails for hikers and bicyclists (Mount Olševa, Mount Raduha, a visit to the ancient yew tree), which all invite you to visit them.

The culinary offer is set apart by its rich selection of soups, which guests may afford themselves in the form of mushroom, beef, onion, ‘grandmother’s’ and others. Moreover, žlinkrofi, Savinja cold cuts, štruklji, homemade bread, cheeses and other culinary surprises await you. The menu is also suitable for vegetarians. Members of the Prodnik family are proud of their sporting prowess and enjoy inviting their guests to join them by organising rafting on the Savinja river, as well as kayak and canoe hire. Summer is a time for taking advantage of the opportunity to hire bikes on the farm, while in winter skis are available to race you down the white slopes of the Golte ski-recreational centre. Free-of-charge use of the sauna and fitness centre is also available to guests. Your hosts will be happy to take you into the countryside and teach you about gathering mushrooms and blueberries. You can also take part in the making of sausages and other pork products or help make a few culinary delights, and go home enriched by having a recipe or two in your pocket. Furthermore, the farm is a fine starting point for a mountaineering trip to the surrounding peaks of the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, a visit to Logarska valley, Mozirski gaj and numerous other attractive places.

From the doorstep, the Ugovšek family will show you the hills in the vicinity and list the sights that are hiding in the upper Savinja Valley. The food on the Ramšak farm is healthy and homemade. There is never a lack of dried meat products, among which guests like most the savinjski zelodec, as well as the homemade bread, milk, and home-grown vegetables and fruit. Guests who especially like active vacations will enjoy the Logarska dolina valley. The farm is a starting point for shorter or longer mountain hikes, and there are several exceptionally beautiful churches and monasteries in the vicinity worth visiting.

This tourist farm, also known locally as the Brinovec Farm Mill, lies by the road from Mozirje to Logarska dolina Valley, part of the picturesque landscape of the Upper Savinja Valley. A visit to the farm will remind you of the times when people still knew the taste of oven-fresh bread kneaded by hand from flour ground in the local mill. The farm is still involved in milling and baking, and they still produce cookies and many types of bread and other pastry goods. The hostess will gladly reveal the secrets of baking delicious bread, which like the rest of their produce does not contain any preservatives. The Brinovecs don’t mind if you help them to mill grain, and from the world of the farm they will gladly take you into the world of nature. If you wish, you can fish in the nearby Savinja River, hiking enthusiasts can explore the Logarska dolina Valley, skiing enthusiasts will be enticed by the Golte ski slopes, and the Mozirski gaj Botanical Park will enchant you during the warm months. Those who want to relax body and soul will enjoy the Mlinar (Miller’s) Club, which invites you to visit a Finnish sauna, massage pools, and a rest area with energizing buckwheat-hull mattresses.

Next to the granary is a lovely miniature kozolec (hayrack), which children staying at the farm can use for playing. Guests of the farm prepare their own food, while hosts can provide some of the ingredients since they breed cows, pigs and sheep on the farm. Some of the popular tourist attractions nearby are Meško's trail, Ivarčko Lake, the Land of Dwarfs trail, and the underground world below Mount Peca.

On the south side of the Slovenj Gradec Pohorje Mountains, one thousand meters above sea level on a solitary location and with a beautiful view of the valley, you can find the Turičnik Apartments. The farm offers guests two apartments for six persons that include all the necessary appliances for a comfortable stay and will make you feel at home. The apartments are only four kilometers from the Kope Mountain Tourist Center, which has over a hundred hectares of ski slopes for beginners and racers. Kope is especially interesting for group and family skiing. A cross-country ski trail and a winter hiking trail run from Kope to the Ribniška Koča mountain lodge. Guests can take walks or ride mountain bikes on the trails through the Pohorje mountain region, and try hang-gliding in Turiška vas or paragliding in Slovenj Gradec. There are also tennis courts nearby, and it's delightful to have a picnic by the pond at the farm and silently watch the doe and fawns grazing.

This farm is situated in Legen, near Šmartno pri Slovenj Gradcu, on the regional road leading to the well-known ski centre of Kope and is an excellent choice for all those who enjoy snowy adventures in winter. The four members of the family who run the farm are a mine of information about local traditions and customs and are experts on herbal remedies. A stay on the farm is an excellent opportunity to discover the varied flavours of the cuisine of the Koroška region. And if you buy some home-made honey, jam made with the farm's own fruit and delicious apple juice, you can continue to spoil your taste buds even when your visit to the farm is merely a pleasant memory. Families with children are more than welcome on the farm, which has its own children's playground. If you love nature, your hosts will invite you to watch the sunset or try birdwatching. The farm is also an excellent starting-point for various hikes and cycling trails and for visits to Uršlja Gora, Peca, Raduha, the Ribnica lakes and so on. The Berneker Trail begins on the farm.

In the middle of Stranice, next to the church and a chapel and not far from the forest, is the Arzenšek farm. This is a genuine farm with horses, cows, pigs, dogs, cats, chickens, and bees. It's a real little zoo that city children marvel at, and the farm is especially full in summer with returning guests.

The tranquility of the green Pohorje mountains, a healthy and clean environment, the hospitality and kindness of Pohorje people—all this and more is waiting for you at the Ramšak Tourist Farm. Hike around Pohorje in summer, ski on Rogla in the winter, and swim at the Zreče Thermal Spa throughout the year. If you ask your hosts what is special about their culinary offer, they will answer without having to think twice: organically grown food. As on all the surrounding farms, the Ramšaks’ plates are loaded with the most various delicacies: meat, vegetables, dried meat and dairy produce, and their wonderful strawberry jam.

If you are a lover of genuine farm food, then visit the Jager farm where they will surprise even the most demanding guests with their excellent homemade meals. The farm of this family of five is situated on a low hill with a beautiful view over the surrounding countryside beside the road from Dramlje to the Žiče Carthusian monastery. There is enough room here for an entire busload of people. The hostess Urška and her daughter Natalija will pamper you with delicacies, while landlord Stane and the grandfather will tell you something about farm work and local traditions and show you the wine cellar in their vineyard cottage. In the glasshouse you will be in contact with nature in late autumn and early spring as well. It's an ideal place to relax when it's cold outside, since the sun warms the glasshouse to a pleasant temperature and you feel as if you were sitting outside. The village where the Jagers live is an excellent starting point for a visit to the Žiče Carthusian monastery, which is situated only two kilometers from the birthplace of Saint Anton Martin Slomšek in Ponikva, or the house of the Ipavec brothers and the Rifnik archeological site in Šentjur. If you want a good skiing, you can visit the Rogla ski resort, and you can swim and relax at the Rogaška Slatina, Laško, or Zreče thermal spas.

With tradition to renown, with quality to trust. Tourism in the traditional Zdolšek house ensures a high-quality tourist offer to those guests who demand privacy, comfort, genuineness and the finest tourist services. The mainstays of the homestead are agriculture and viniculture. A stone inscription of the year 1824 over the entry portal of the house bears witness to its age. There is a large garden and orchard in front of the homestead. The homestead is in the hands of those who turn their backs on mass tourism, and thus attracts above all those guests seeking privacy, peace and relaxation. The surrounding area is varied and interesting. Nature lovers may go cycling, mushroom picking, gathering healing herbs or simply stroll through the beautiful countryside. Guests find it interesting to get to know the way of life on the homestead and in the surrounding area, while nearby tourist centres, including Terme Olimia and Terme Rogaška, may additionally enrich your stay. Its inclusion on the list of four-apple tourist farms demonstrates the quality of the tourist offer on the homestead. It was admitted to the European network of traditional houses in Slovenia due to its elements of tradition, its special character and homeliness.

The Bizjak farm is located in the hilly region of Kozjansko just about halfway between the Rogaška Slatina and Atomske Toplice health resorts; near the house beside the forest are a barn, a kozolec, and a vineyard work shed. The latter promises that guests will not leave thirsty, and the good wines are accompanied by fresh pork and beef, dried meat products, cottage cheese, and homemade bread. For desert, the cottage cheese potica (better known locally as zafrkječa) is truly special. Pleasant walking destinations include the two pilgrimage churches on nearby Tinski vrh, and car excursions can be made to the monastery and medieval pharmacy in Olimje and the health resorts. There is always plenty to do on the farm, from corn husking to playing in the hayloft, and since several members of the family are skilled musicians, the evenings resound with Slovene songs.

The Juričko family wine cellar lies among the rolling hills of Bizeljsko. Its position on a hill, near the forest, surrounded by meadows and overlooking a vineyard offers its visitors nice views of the picturesque landscape. The Juričkos are well-known for making excellent wines that will be most appreciated by wine lovers. To accompany their wines, they will offer you delicious homemade meat products. Families with children are also welcome at the wine cellar; during the warmer months children can play on the grass or on the swing. If you wish, during your stay you can rent bikes from the Juričkos and set out to explore the surroundings. Some of the places worth visiting include the nesting grounds of the European bee-eater (Merops apiaster), repnicas (caves dug into siliceous sand for storing crops), and castles in Podsreda, Bizeljsko and Pišece. If you like to have fun in the pool and enjoy the benefits of thermal spas, Terme Čatež, Terme Olimia and Terme Tuhelj in the neighbouring Croatia are not far away. In the cold winter months you can relax in the sauna or warm your bones near the fireplace. The hosts can also organize for their guests tours of repnicas and peasants' museums.

The farm is children-friendly. There are children's highchairs available and healthy and nutritious meals are served. Children will especially enjoy spending time with the farms dogs, Laki and Ajka, who love children and are happy to do all sorts of tricks for them.

And, since vineyards surround the farm, you can even pick a handful of grapes right through your window. The Protners are famous for their organically-produced fruit, grapes, and wine, which always impress fans of healthy food. Their kitchen specialties include meats from the lard barrel, venison salami, boiled sausage, and gibanica.

The Roškar family farm, located in the village of Lastomerci, lies surrounded by vineyards in the very heart of the famous Radgona winemaking district, where the Roškars also own vineyards of their own. The owners of the farm, which was one of the first tourist farms in the region, are proud of the excellent wines they produce. They also proudly continue the rich local culinary heritage, so that their guests can enjoy delicious meals all year round. They will thus offer their guests different soups (bograč, sour soup…), meat dishes (roast chicken, different roasts, deer meat specialties…), various side dishes (groats, potatoes…), cold dishes (sandwiches…), rich desserts (gibanica, kvasenica, postržjača, ocvirkovica…), that each in its own right and all together create a truly rich harmony of flavours. The Roškars have their own deer farm in the immediate vicinity, which always attracts both young and somewhat older visitors. They will be happy to receive families with children who have at their disposal a playground and a big soccer field. The farm is an excellent starting point for walks in nature and for visiting local thermal resorts in Radenci, Mala Nedelja… You can also head to the nearby hills and the cellars of Radgonske gorice or visit the castle in Negova.

Are you fed up of all the noise and polluted air in the big city? If your answer is yes, this is the place for you and your family. You will find the Rajšp apartment house in the heart of the Slovenske gorice region, where the sun rises early. On a quiet location surrounded by fields and near a forest there is a house with three well-equipped apartments whose names reflect their position: the Sunrise, the Sunset and the Sun. You can stay in the apartments, prepare your own meals and spend your holiday or getaway in peace and without stress. On the farm, which is just a short stroll away, you can stock up on fresh farm products (milk, bread, oil, eggs, jam...). If you wish, you can also have a look at different farm work. The surrounding area is suitable for leisurely strolls, Nordic walking, cycling, fishing and other activities. You can relax in the nearby thermal spas, and in winter you can visit the ski slopes at Mariborsko Pohorje. Next to the apartment house you will find a renovated old wooden house with a bread oven, a terrace and a room for socializing, which is particularly useful if you decide to spend your holiday together with a group of friends. Next to the house there is also a well, typical of the region, from which you can draw water yourself, especially during the warmer months, for drinking or for freshening up on a hot summer morning.

The excursion and winegrowing Lovrec farm is situated in Jiršovci. The house with its thatched roof, which won an award in 2009 for preserving cultural heritage in the countryside, is surrounded by vineyards and offers a great view of the surrounding area including parts of Austria, Hungary and Croatia. In the kitchen the hostess continues the culinary tradition of the region. Guests will love her Styrian sour soup, pork roast, salad with minced lard, gibanica, apple strudel, cold cuts with meat from the tünka (lard barrel)… Guests will also enjoy excellent wines offered on the farm since there are 45,000 grape vines on the farm that are cultivated with great care and respect, producing 15 different varieties of wine (9 whites, 6 reds). You can also taste some of the homemade liqueurs and enjoy a glass or two of homemade brandy. Children will enjoy the company of the farm's cat and Reks the dog, or they can join their parents and go for a ride in an old-fashioned hay wagon. The hosts can also organize guided tours of the nearby places of interest and help you to get to know them better. They will thus take you on a scenic tour of Destrnik, a tour of the vinedresser's cottage and General Maister's memorial room as well as St. Urban's church, and you can also climb to the top of Maister's tower with them.

The family are particularly proud of their cooking and still prepare food according to grandmother's recipes. One of their specialities is walnut kvasenica bread, while the sour soup, braised cabbage and many other dishes are also excellent. Even vegetarians will be spoilt. Every good meal deserves to be accompanied by a drop of good wine – which you can also enjoy at home, since wine, home-made bread and minced lard are available to buy on the farm. Families with children are well catered for on the farm. The farmer will be happy to take you to his wine cellar, where he will organise a wine-tasting for you. You can take part in grape-harvesting and learn how grapes were harvested in "the olden days". You can set out on foot, by bicycle or by car to visit Gornja Radgona, Negova and other destinations, peep into neighbouring Austria and discover many more of Prekmurje's natural and cultural sights during your stay on the farm.

The farm is located in the northernmost part of Slovenia, in the village of Rogašovci, in a land of gently rolling hills and murmuring brooks, with lush forests, meadows, gardens, fields and vineyards. The hostess, who is also a trained cook, always makes sure that guests leave the farm satisfied. The food offered on the farm is based on traditional local cuisine and so guests can enjoy some typical dishes of the region. A large emphasis is given to dishes containing shiitake and oyster mushrooms that are grown on the farm. Dishes are accompanied by chosen wines produced by winemakers from the surrounding area. You can enjoy wine tasting in the impressive setting of a traditional underground wine cellar with vaulted ceiling. In the village of Rogašovci you must visit St. George's church, and in the nearby village of Ocinje there is a 300-year old wooden church tower.

The interesting landscape of Prekmurje and the rich cultural heritage offer plenty of opportunities for excursions, and the lake is ideal for water sports.

The Tremel farm can be found in the beautiful, newly established Goričko-Raab-Őrség Regional Park, which preserves a rich natural and cultural heritage. At the table you will be offered traditional Prekmurje delicacies: meat from the minced lard barrel, homemade ham, salami, and more. If you want a hot meal, you will be pampered with dödole, gibice, homemade rye bread, buckwheat žganci, various meat dishes, etc. Gourmets will be charmed with Prekmurje gibanica, posolanka, retaši, biba, zlevanka, and so on. This culinary expedition at the Tremels is elegantly complemented by an outstanding wine list, since the farm also boasts excellent high quality wines. Your hosts will take you on a tour of their wine cellar and direct mushroom hunters to the best picking spots. If you wish, you can enjoy the sauna in the farmhouse. While walking, bicycling, or horseback riding around the Goričko region, you will discover beautiful nature and many enchanting places, and the Moravci, Radenci, Banovci, and Lendava thermal spas all invite you to visit.

The Flisar family tourist farm, featuring gorgeous balcony flowers, is on a hill among vineyards along the Goričko wine road. The culinary delights of your hosts will enchant you. You will be pampered with bograč (a kind of goulash with potato and pasta), bujta repa (a turnip dish), crackling spread, Prekmurska gibanica, sauerkraut, žganci or dried meat products, while your hosts take care to ensure that no vegetarian leaves the table hungry. As good food obviously should be accompanied by good wine, Franc the master will be happy to bring a carafe or two to your table. Anyone that is interested to do so may try their hand at a little agricultural work, such as unhusking corn or grape-picking. The farmer’s wife will be delighted to unveil some of the hidden secrets of her cuisine. The farm is an ideal base for lovers of aqua fun, as there are various thermal centres in the surrounding area, including Terme Vivat, Terme 3000, Terme Radenci and Terme Lendava. For those keen on religious art, visits to the church of Sv Nikolaj, the Rotunda in Selo or the church in Bogojina, which is a work by famous Slovenian architect Plečnik, are a must.

Vinotoč Urisk lies on a plateau surrounded by vineyards at the foot of the Goričko Nature Park and offers a marvellous view of the Prekmurje region. Its two-hundred-year-old wine cellar is the oldest in Prekmurje and the winery epitomises the idyllic Prekmurje way of life. If you want to taste excellent wines and discover the flavours of Prekmurje cuisine, a visit to the winery is an excellent idea. Dishes such as pereci, flat cakes, gibanica (Prekmurje's famous layer cake) and zlevanka contain a wealth of flavours. You are welcome to take part in grape-harvesting and St Martin's Day celebrations. You can even help with the work in the vineyard, or go mushroom-picking. The winery also organises presentations of local crafts including creative workshops at which you can learn how to make things from plant fibres or the basics of embroidery, carving, decorating Easter eggs, etc. The winery is an excellent base from which to visit nearby Lake Bukovnica and its "energy points". Also worth a visit is Dobrovnik – Slovenia's only tropical garden, boasting an enormous variety of orchids. In summer and winter alike, a visit to the spas of Moravske Toplice or Lendavske Toplice can be balm for a tired body and spirit.

You will find the Dervarič family farm in the village of Kopriva, surrounded by vineyards, offering a beautiful view on the surrounding countryside.

Since vineyards are also part of the farm, the owners make seven to eight thousand of liters of wine every year. If you want, you can accompany your host Dušan into the 120-year-old wine cellar for wine tasting and learn more about the fascinating world of wine. The farm is children-friendly and its owners can also organize a rafting expedition on the Mura river as well as take you for a ride in a horse-drawn carriage.

In the house, built in the rustic style in 1939, they will treat you to Prlekija food, homegrown vegetables, and homemade jams and juices. With meals they also serve a selection of their own first-class wines (gewürztraminer, sauvignon, šipon, Welschriesling and Rhine Riesling, rumeni muškat), and the host happily invites guests for wine tasting in the old wine cellar. Holidays on the Jureš Tourist Farm are as suitable for those who love active holidays as for those for whom peace and contact with nature are most important.

This tourist farm is a popular stop for visitors touring northeastern Slovenia. With five fishponds, the farm is a magnet for fishermen, and fishing gear can be borrowed at the farm. In addition to fish, the hostess serves plates filled with pork preserved in lard, sausages, cheese, and home-baked bread as well as Prlekija gibanica, a unique form of this pastry delicacy, and excellent dried fruit. Children can try riding the ponies, and bicycles are also available for rides around the area, for example, to nearby Jeruzalem and Ljutomer or to the famous floating Babič Mill on the Mura River where you can buy various sorts of flour. The farm also has horses for riding, there is harness racing in Ljutomer, and the swimming pools of the Bioterme Mala Nedelja, Lendava, Moravske Toplice, Radenci, and Banovci thermal spas are only a short drive away.

All their dishes are accompanied by carefully selected bottled wines. Your guests will happily invite you to the grape harvest, crowned in November by the Martinovanje (St. Martin’s Day) festivities, and the last month of the year is devoted to organizing New Year’s Eve celebrations. You can visit the birthplace of the linguist Fran Miklošič or go swimming at the nearby Banovci Thermal Spa.

The hosts are happy to say that they have a rich culinary offer. They are sure to charm their guests with turkey, home-baked in the wood oven and St Martin’s goose, prepared according to the recipes of our grandmothers.

Every dish is accompanied by a thoughtfully-selected wine, as the farm boasts a broad choice of quality and high-quality wines. Vegetarians will not leave the table hungry either. Taking part in grape-picking, helping to set up a ‘klopotec’, a kind of scarecrow which is a typical feature of the region, or St Martin’s feast are all events which will serve to leave a lasting impression. Should you so wish, you may join a guided wine-tasting. The farm is an ideal spot to set out for a visit to the thermal baths at Banovci, Radenci, Moravske Toplice or Lendava. Otherwise, you might find Jeruzalem, Ormož, Ljutomer or Ptuj, one of the most beautiful Slovenian towns, well worth a visit.

The Bogša farm has an idyllic setting north of Ormož in a village that you won't find in any tourist literature. There is never a shortage of wine and homemade bread served with sausages, pork preserved in lard, homemade aspic, fresh vegetables, and dairy products; on weekends, they serve suckling pig roasted in the bread oven. In this tiny village, guests mainly enjoy the peace of nature. It is also possible to observe fallow deer in the pen on the farm. The house has a sauna and a lawn suitable for all kinds of outdoor games. Hunting has a special place here, and you can go hunting in the forest or wait for game in the blinds with members of the hunters' association in Ormož. The closest health resort is the Ptuj Thermal Spa, and the Banovci spa is not much farther away. There is a large wine cellar in Ormož, and touring the Ljutomer and Ormož Wine Roads is a delight. Ljutomer boasts the oldest equestrian club in Slovenia, and in season you can enjoy the harness races.

The Ozmec farm stands on the slopes of Slovenske Gorice in the heart of Prlekija. What the people of Prlekija allow themselves they offer with pleasure to their guests goes the saying, and the Ozmec farm is no exception.

When they have more guests–there is seating for 80-120 diners–they offer sauerkraut with roast sausage or blood sausage, other meat dishes, and for dessert, pogača and postržjača. On the farm, you can help tend the vines in spring and harvest grapes in autumn and eat with the family when the work is done. Local sights worth visiting include the Sv. Trojica (Holy Trinity) church from 1219, the viewing tower in Gomila, the castle in Velika Nedelja, and the wine cellars of Ormož and Jeruzalem, and, of course, a trip to Ptuj is a must weit. The Sv.

At the end of an idyllic valley, surrounded by vineyards and a small deciduous forest, stands the Pudvoi Tourist Farm in Stara vas in Bizeljsko. The hostess, an excellent cook, makes the traditional Bizeljsko buckwheat cake in the bread oven as well as many other delicious dishes. At the farm you can also taste high quality wines, homemade brandy, apple cider, fruit, and fruit juices. Along with the old farm, the Ogorevc family acquired two repnicas used by the previous owner to store produce and fruit. Since repnicas, caves dug into siliceous sand for storing crops, are a natural attraction of the Bizeljsko region, your first adventure awaits you right on the farm. Today the Ogorevcs have three repnicas. The one they dug themselves is connected to the cellar and is used to store homemade bottled wines. In this land of sandy soil there are also many other sights that invite you to visit: the Nujčev oak tree, Bizeljsko Castle, the Brežice Regional Museum, other repnicas, the Istenič champagne cellar, and much more. They can also take you swimming at the Čatež or Olimia thermal spas.

Nujec is the homestead name used by the Balon family for purposes of better recognition of this winemaking family in Bizeljsko. The centuries-old name Nujec originates from their homestead in the village of Gregovce with an underground wine cellar that can store up to 50.000 litres of wine right between the roots of the oldest oak tree in Slovenia. Although the oak tree has already succumbed to old age and the great Capricorn beetle, it is still magnificent and worth seeing. The oak is also a symbol of our wines. The farm comprises 20 hectares of farmland, 5 hectares of which are vineyards. There are a total of around 25.000 grape vines. In the center of Bizeljsko we have a wine shop that can receive up to 45 people. It also has a tasting room where you can taste a wide range of our wines accompanied by homemade cold cuts containing salami, ham, bacon and smoked shoulder butt. All these homemade specialties are made from pigs grown on our farm and fed homegrown food, which provides us with high-quality pork for making our products. Come and visit us in Bizeljsko, where you will be able to feel our connection with our vineyards. Good wines, in which we can taste warm rays of sun, noble aromas and the loving hand of the winemaker will warm your heart in a way that is hard to describe, so come and feel it with us.

The Vimpolšek family farm is located on the outskirts of Brežice, surrounded by meadows, fields and a forest. The owners have embraced integrated farming methods in growing produce and vegetables; they also grow free-range poultry and pigs and are known as excellent winemakers – no wonder then that there are always delicious aromas wafting from their kitchen. The hostess still prepares dishes based on her grandmother's recipes. Some of the traditional dishes found on the menu are smoked pork shank with sauerkraut and buckwheat žganci, osukana župa (a type of soup) with cracklings, posiljeno zelje (a cabbage dish) with beans, white polenta with cracklings, buckwheat cake… And this is just a small part of their rich and varied culinary offer. Vegetarians are well provided for. The Vimpolšeks will also offer their guests their excellent wine. The farm is children-friendly and has a children's playground. The hosts can also teach you how to make hay using a scythe and how to thrash grains. The farm is an excellent starting point for visiting the castle in Brežice, the swimming pools in Terme Čatež, the church of St. Vid, the castle and golf course in Mokrice and repnicas (caves dug into siliceous sand for storing crops) in Bizeljsko.

Visitors are always welcome at the farm in a village right under the parish church.Guests who choose to come can spend their day in a variety of ways. The farm is especially suitable for lovers of archery, riding, rowing and basketball. It is also very child-friendly, as housewife Petra is a kindergarten teacher well-aware of the secrets of the sometimes ‘changeable’ ways of children. In the summertime when the weather is nice, your hosts organise genuine children’s holidays, but will also be happy to look after the babysitting should the parents wish to afford themselves a short trip to nearby attractions. Sv Vid, a wonderful viewpoint, is not far from the farm and may be reached on foot. Other popular attractions include Mokrice castle, Kostanjevica with its unique Forma Viva, the winegrowing hills of Bizeljsko and Brežice, while lovers of aqua fun should never forget to visit Terme Čatež, a real magnet for children on hot summer days.

The Ob Izviru Krupe farm is situated close to the source of the Krupa River.

Guests may participate in the farm chores such as haymaking, corn husking, and grape picking or try their hand at herding sheep and driving a hay wagon. There are several well-marked nature trails on which you can explore the Krupa Landscape Park and Bela krajina's unspoiled natural landscape, while those who like excitement can go paragliding from Mt. Smuk or down to the nearby motocross course. There are also numerous fascinating festivals such as the Spring Wine Festival in April, the Jurjevanje festival in June, or the Semič Wedding in July.

The Gabrijanovi farm is situated near forests and vineyards only 500 meters from the Kolpa River.

The Na Hribu farm lies on the eastern edge of the Vipavska Brda hills in the settlement called Slap. There are fewer than 400 inhabitants in the village, ensuring that guests at Na Hribu will have a peaceful stay. The Žorž family are more than happy to spend time with their guests, sharing with them the traditions of the Vipava region and teaching them all about the medicinal herbs that grow in the surrounding area.

Guests can climb on Mount Nanos and bicycle in the Vipava Valley, and the sky is often bull of hang gliders in summer.

Already a quick glance at the valley will reveal to the traveler that this is a wine producing region. The Vipava wine road goes across the Vipava valley and past the Birsa farm, a farm with a long winemaking tradition. However, the farm is not only known for its excellent wines, but the Birsas are also known as friendly hosts who like to treat their guests to delicious, home cooked dishes, among which various meat dishes (roast suckling pig and lamb, different roasts, sausages, cured meat) are most sought after.

At the very western edge of Goriška Brda right on the Italian border in the little village of Breg pri Golem Brdu stands the Breg Tourist Farm. Here guests can enjoy an environment that the bustle of civilization has not reached. A typical farmhouse is available for guests; the lower part contains a smaller room with a fireplace, while the upper part has a large room with a glassed terrace and a fine view of the Brda landscape. Toč with pršut (prosciutto) and white polenta, frtalja (an omelet rich with herbs) served according to an old Brda custom, goulash with white polenta, markandele, frika, njoki, potato cake—all these are offered from the long list of Brda delicacies, but of course a wide range of other (Brda and Friuli-Venezia Giulia) dishes are on the menu. And wine from their own cellar, naturally. At the neighbours you can learn the secrets of shaping pottery, and the Brda region and the entire Goriška region are yours to explore. The farm has received the national “Lipa” award for quality.

In eastern Goriška Brda in the village of Snežatno, guests are welcomed by a monument to ancient Brda architecture: the Štekar homestead, which according to church records was built around 1771. The restored buildings overlook the vineyards and cherry orchards in the surroundings and attract guests for whom the hostess prepares selected Brda dishes ranging from Friuli-Venezia Giulia’s frtalja (an omelet rich with herbs) to Brda’s mineštra (a thick soup) and dishes in which you can taste the spices and vegetables of the season. Roman Štekar looks after the vineyards and the wine cellar where his top quality bottled wines are maturing (Rumena Rebula, Cabernet, Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot). Goriška Brda with its attractions is inviting in itself, particularly when the cherries and grapes are ripe, and the neighbouring areas are also full of interest. Guests can try their luck at Nova Gorica’s casinos and drive to visit Lokve, Sveta Gora, Štanjel, Kobarid, or even Venice.

Surrounded by the beautiful nature of Goriška brda you will find the Šibav family farm, whose owners have for generations given special attention to viticulture. The locals like to say that grape vines and wine are their greatest love. The family works in the vineyard all year round. The wines they produce, which you can taste and buy, are of the highest quality, since the Šibavs base their winemaking methods on their experience, time-tested traditions as well as modern technology. No cooked dishes are offered on the farm, but the hosts will be happy to offer you their cured meat products that accompany their high-quality wines in a harmonic way. If you so desire, the hosts will organize wine tasting for you. They will not forget to mention that their white wines are characterized by cold maceration, aging and a longer period of keeping it on lees. Red wines, on the other hand, are produced by classic maceration – hand mixing. Both red and white wines age in classic oak and acacia barrels. The farm has two rooms (2+2 beds) and offers overnight stay with breakfast. The farm's location makes it an excellent starting point for exploring the Goriška brda region. Interesting sights in the vicinity are the nearby natural bridge Krčnik and Korada, a hill suitable as a hiking goal. You can also set out by bike or by car and thus make your sightseeing even easier.

The Puhan family tourist farm is situated in Bogojina, a village known for its church designed by the great Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik. Right above the church, on its northern side, there is a hill with a chapel on top. After a few minute's walk from the church to the top of the hill, you will find yourself in the yard of the Puhan farm. The Puhans are known for their excellent culinary offer. Guests love their bograč (a goulasch-like soup), dődoli (potato mush), cold cuts with Prekmurje ham, smoked shoulder butt, homemade sausages and other meat products, to which the hostess adds various delicious spreads. There are also traditional deserts such as posolanka (cake with cottage cheese) and the mouth-watering prekmurska gibanica (Prekmurje layer cake), with its four different fillings. In winter they also offer different pork specialties and sausages, including blood sausages and bujta repa (sour turnip hot pot). Meals are always accompanied by carefully chosen wines produced by your host Jože. The Puhans also organize wine tastings for their guests in their beautiful wine cellar, lead by Jože, who is also a member of the European wine knight order. The farm is a good starting point for visiting Terme 3000, the tropical garden in Dobrovnik, Bukovniško lake, the Love island in Ižakovci with its floating mill and other interesting sights of Prekmurje.

An increasing number of farms in Slovenia are opting to develop specialised services in order to meet your holiday requirements and help make your choice easier. Experts from individual fields have drawn up compulsory conditions and selection criteria that must be met by farms wishing to obtain a specialised farm symbol. Since 2007 the symbols have been awarded by the Chamber of Agriculture and Forestry of Slovenia.

organic holiday farmAn organic holiday farm offers guests a healthy living environment and organic food, for which it holds a certificate from the authorised control body.

healthy living holiday farmOffers holidays for those who love a healthy lifestyle. Opportunities for active leisure in unspoilt natural surroundings, combined with a healthy diet.

family-friendly tourist farmThese farms offer family holidays in an authentic farm setting. Great attention is devoted to entertaining children, and they pride themselves their at-tractive facilities especially for children (room furnishings, play areas, healthy food). Special attention is devoted to including parents in all activities.

tourist farm with program for children unaccompanied by parentsThese farms offer entertaining and active holidays for children without accompanying parents, most frequently with their own guardians. Some farms offer a safe and diverse comprehensive program of activities themselves. Their farm stay programs include getting to know nature, working on the farm, and play activities under the careful supervision of child care workers or other professionally qualified staff.

cyclist-friendly farmOffers numerous possibilities for cycling in the surrounding area, information on cycling trails and their characteristics, and information on local sights that are reachable by bicycle. Bicycle storage is available on the farm. Bicycles also available for hire.

wine tourism farmWine tourism farms, most of which lie on wine routes, are friendly family farms that spoil their guests with fine wines and delicious cooking. Guests can learn about work in the vineyard and cellar. These farms are not only attractive to wine lovers: all visitors are charmed by their hospitality and homeliness.

disabled-friendly farmVisitors in wheelchairs can move independently around the farm and premises that are adapted as far as possible to their needs.
