Bela krajina

Bela krajina boasts three cities whose roots go back thousands of years.

Bela krajina, the land on the sunny side of the mythical Gorjanci, will surprise you with its diversity of natural and cultural heritage. Its name comes from the slender white birches and the white linen clothes that the people of Belokranje once wore. Almost 600 km² The karst plain on the southern side is surrounded by the warmest Slovenian river Kolpa, which invites you to swim, boat or hike along its banks. In 2010, Kolpa became the holder of the prestigious title of European Destination of Excellence.
