Wooden Bridge Over the Krka River

Highlight • Bridge

Wooden bridges over the Krka River are an important part of the cultural heritage of Dolenjska and wider Slovenia. The Krka, as the longest entirely Slovenian river, has numerous bridges, some of which are still wooden. They were built from oak or larch wood, as both are resistant to water and rot.

Saint Nicholas Church

Highlight • Religious Site

Special church from 1739. Located on private property, but if you are lucky the dog will alert a woman with a large key who will be happy to open the door for you.

Bridge over Krka

Highlight • Bridge

There's also a great ice cream parlor here. The town is generally not overrun by tourists, even during peak season. The location on the Krka River is picturesque.

Old Road to Oberdorf

Highlight • Cycleway

The new 448 route made the old road near the river obsolete, so now only cyclists and pedestrians "flow" there. Wonderful.
