Experience the charm of Kranj, the cultural heart of the Gorenjska region, where history, nature, and vibrant modern life blend seamlessly. Known as the City of Prešeren, in honour of Slovenia's greatest poet, Kranj invites visitors to explore its rich cultural heritage, picturesque old town, and breathtaking views of the Julian Alps.
Discover the city’s Roman roots and medieval development at the Gorenjska Museum, housed in the Khislstein Castle, where artefacts and exhibits bring Kranj’s history to life. Don’t miss the Prešeren Memorial House, where Slovenia’s national poet, France Prešeren, lived and worked, and learn about his profound impact on Slovenian culture and literature.
Kranj’s location makes it a perfect base for exploring the stunning landscapes of Gorenjska. The Kokra Canyon, just steps away from the old town, is a hidden gem where you can enjoy peaceful walks along the crystal-clear river. A short drive takes you to iconic destinations like Lake Bled, Lake Bohinj, and the Triglav National Park, offering hiking, cycling, and water sports in breathtaking alpine surroundings.
