New: Luxury Chalet & Sauna Kati

We are proud to present a new luxury chalet in our offer. Chalet Kati will opwn its doors in May 2024. It is the newest offering on Velika planina, renovated in April 2024. The extensive renovation transformed the Kati chalet into a luxury accommodation. While its exterior reflects carefully designed traditional architecture, its interior offers an extremely comfortable, ultra-modern experience. It has everything you could want for a relaxed and carefree vacation in the mountains. Welcome!

Two of the first guests that stayed at Kati chalet during the May Day holidays prepared a wonderful report.

Thanks to Oriana Sardella and Alvise Scarpa for sharing their experience:

💚Just two hours from Italy there is one of the most beautiful places we have ever seen!😍

⛰️After taking the longest pillarless cable car in Europe and then the chairlift which took us to almost 1700 metres.

🐮We went to visit an ancient shepherds’ village that we had wanted to see for a long time, it is said to have been inhabited since the Bronze Age.

🧀We then witnessed an ancient tradition of how local cheese is made, and shortly afterwards we went to eat some typical dishes in a refuge including ravioli with cottage cheese, amazing!😋

🏡In the end we headed towards the chalet Kati where we slept, a dream! The mix between ancient and modern won us over. While Its exterior reflects the typical architecture of local buildings, its interior offers an ultra modern experience with a spacious sauna in the living room!

🧖🏻‍♀️ We are at the Velika Planina, one of the wonders of Slovenia🇸🇮.

Luxury Chalet & Sauna Irena is the OMG accomodation!

You must see this video story of our guest Ryan, who spent an interesting day in our luxury chalet Irena. Ryan is a globally recognized influencer with millions of followers from all over the world. This time he set himself the challenge of visiting the most interesting and unique Rbnb accommodations in the world. As one of the three most interesting or the “OMG” accommodations, as he says himself, he chose our luxury chalet Irena. He stayed at Irene in January this year. See the video below to find out why the luxury chalet Irena is really so special.

Ryans’s statements “Craziest view of my life.” and “Slovenia is the most beautiful country.” perfectly sumarize the experience he shares with us.

Thanks Ryan!

Welcome to Hiker Heaven

Walking through nature, spectacular views of the Kamnik-Savinj Alps, herdsmen’s huts and delicious local specialties. Starting in early June, herdsmen lead their cows to this mountain pasture. This means that summer allows visitors a chance for an unforgettable experience.


The gondola and chairlift begin operating, but if you’d like a longer hike, there are many paths up from the valley below to traverse on foot. Our agency offers organized trips such as A Little Snack with a Herdsman and Up the Mountain for a Snack.
