  • Wild camping on a sustainable farm 55 minutes' drive from Ljubljana
  • Zoo Park Ranč Aladin 25 minutes’ drive; Steklas Trail 35 minutes
  • Resident horses and educational tours; barbecue provided; dogs welcome
Sitting on a south-facing hill almost at the geographical centre of Slovenia – a 25-minute drive from Litija (to the north west), Ivančna Gorica (to the south west) and Trebnje (to the south east) – Ranch Lambergar is a great base from which to explore this green Balkan country. This family-friendly site, which extends across 16.5 hectares of meadow and forest, is part of a farm devoted to sustainable agriculture and nature preservation. The owners grow their own food, including a collection of heirloom varieties of fruit and vegetables, and they also run educational activities such as greenhouse tours. This is no resort; across the wilderness area at night, you might hear deer, donkeys, owls and crickets, but no traffic. If you’re into animals more than plants, you can learn all about the rare Slovenian domestic animals who live on site, and get up close and personal with the resident horses and donkeys. Your canine companion is a welcome guest here, but please be mindful of the resident beasties and other guests. There are no pre-assigned pitches, so park your car at the entrance of the ranch and take a walk around to locate the perfect spot for you. If you’re passionate about all things equestrian, you might want to set up in the horse paddock; maybe you’ll prefer to be pond-side or choose a pitch with views of the hills (and all the way to Croatia). In addition to a composting toilet, an outdoor solar shower, an outdoor sink for washing dishes and a barbecue, there are no artificial lights on site. The site owners are happy to provide an assortment of items and tools for their guests, so feel free to ask if you need anything. Ever obliging, they will also pick you up from the nearest public transport stop, if you’re travelling without your own vehicle.

What customers say

This campsite offers a peaceful, nature-focused experience with friendly and helpful hosts. Visitors frequently praise the serene atmosphere, natural surroundings, and the opportunity to interact with farm animals. While some appreciate the basic, "back to nature" amenities like composting toilets and outdoor showers, others find them primitive. Directions can be challenging, with some routes being narrow. The campsite has been improving facilities, with mentions of leveling pitches and plans for updated toilet and shower blocks.

Liked Tranquility and simplicity. The location really allows for you to enjoy some peace. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the farm location and the kids loved the animals. Every one of the family enjoyed the cooler showers during the very hot summer weather.

Liked De werkelijk fantastische plaats met geweldig uitzicht. Hele vriendelijke uitbater. Ahmed had helemaal gelijk met zijn opmerking: Who needs warm water. Geweldige locatie met veel flora en fauna. The best place to stay in Slovenia.

Liked Wer eine Auszeit sucht, ist hier genau richtig! Mitten im Herzen Sloweniens findet man diese Perle von Campingplatz! Wunderbare Ruhe in der Natur mit Pferden, Eseln, Hühner, ein Pfau, Katzen und auch 2 kleine Teiche mit Fröschen. Es gibt eine Kochmöglichkeit, bei der sogar Gas zur Verfügung gestellt wird. Außerdem freien Strom um das Telefon zu laden. Ansonsten 4€/Nacht. Wir standen autark. Das Cowboy-House und ein Wohnwagen mit Terrasse können ebenfalls angemietet werden.

Es gibt 2 Komposttoiletten und mittlerweile auch eine normale mit Wasserspülung. Diese funktioniert, das Bad ist aber noch im Bau. Außerdem soll es in der Zukunft zu den beiden kalten Außenduschenauch noch normale Duschen geben. Die Gastgeber waren mega freundlich, haben uns alles erklärt. Englisch wird super gesprochen, selbst die beiden Jungs können es. Zum Abschied haben wir dann noch eine Portion Kirschen mit auf den Weg bekommen. Für uns war es leider nur ein kleiner Zwischenstopp, aber wir werden definitiv wieder kommen ❤️

Route directions

If arriving via the A2 highway, it is best to avoid taking the exit for Bič – this is often suggested by satnavs but it has some extremely narrow sections and a low underpass so is not suitable for anyone driving anything larger than a car. Instead, take the exit for either Trebnje-Zahod (travelling via Novo Mesto) or Ivančna Gorica (via Ljubljana) as these are more suitable roads for large vehicles. By public transport, take the train to Litija and then take a bus towards Gabrovka (five times daily, Monday-Friday). Disembark at the bus stop in Moravče – from there it's a hike of 4 km (or pick-up can be arranged if requested in advance).

Local attractions

Wolves, camels and kangaroos are among the residents at Zoo Park Ranč Aladin (25 minutes’ drive). Children can take part in get-to-know sessions with their animal of choice, have a go at archery or expend some energy in the playground, with climbing frames and swings. Among the great hikes in the area is the Steklas Trail (35 minutes), which you can follow all the way up to the top of Nebesa (a 600-metre mountain covered in forest). Your efforts will be rewarded with views across sloping vineyards, the Mirna Valley and the peaks of southern Slovenia. Anchored by the massive Tivoli Park (and the wooded slopes of Roznik Hill beyond), and dominated by a hilltop medieval castle, Ljubljana (55 minutes) is a lively university city. The large pedestrianised centre is dotted with cafés, restaurants and bars, and museums include the popular House of Illusions.
