Camping at Nogometni Golf Ljubljana

Ljubljana Castle (20 minutes’ drive) sits in a hill overlooking the city, and is an obvious place to kick off a day’s sightseeing – walk up there or get the funicular. After that, take in a couple of the museums and wander cobbled streets lined with brightly painted Baroque-era churches and houses. Then you can put your feet up in a café on the Ljubljanica riverside and tuck into local "bleki" pasta dishes and apple dumplings for dessert. If the kids have behaved on your day in the city, let them run off energy on the rope courses and treetop trails in Pustolovski park Geoss (35 minutes). Other great options are Vodno mesto Atlantis (five minutes) with lazy river rides and paddling pools for younger kids, and Ljubljana Zoo (15 minutes), which holds seal-feeding sessions and animal safaris. There are plenty of hiking trails and bike routes to get you out into the mountains. Beautiful Lake Bled (45 minutes) is circumnavigated by paths, and you can catch a wooden boat to a little island and its church.
