Sights and activities

Ljubljana is made for movement. Follow the paths through Tivoli Park, climb into the green of Rožnik, explore the Ljubljana Botanic Garden, or try stand-up paddleboarding on the Ljubljanica River and see the city from the water.

Cycling Routes

Cycling is part of Ljubljana’s way of life. The city offers more than 450 km of cycling routes, bike parks, mountain-biking trails, and easy ways to discover its highlights on two wheels. From the city streets, you can ride straight into the green countryside, with scenic plains, climbs for every level, and views worth stopping for.

Family holidays in Ljubljana

Ljubljana is also an easy, rewarding choice for families. Start with a relaxed walk through the Old Town, continue with a boat trip on the Ljubljanica River or a ride on the Urban Train, then visit Ljubljana Zoo, set off on The Dragon’s Unusual Journey, or step into the worlds of the House of Illusions and House of Experiments.

Ljubljana Card

The Ljubljana Card makes exploring the city and its surroundings simple. It brings together more than 30 free experiences and services, from museums, galleries, and a guided city tour to Ljubljana Castle, Terme Snovik Thermal Spa, Ljubljana Zoo, Arboretum Volčji Potok, the House of Illusions, a tourist boat ride, and the Urban Train.

Art and Culture

Ljubljana is a recognised European capital of culture, art, festivals, and memorable experiences, with creativity around every corner. It is no surprise that in 2026 it was named the Best European Creative City Destination by the Creative Tourism Network. Explore UNESCO protected Plečnik’s Ljubljana, museums, galleries, and cultural quarters, or get creative yourself in craft workshops and at Centre Rog.

Modern Creative Experiences

Modern Creative Experiences offer an even more personal view of the city. In small groups, meet local creators in their studios and discover contemporary practices in jewellery, illustration, comics, ceramics, and textiles. Built on direct contact, shared knowledge, and hands-on creativity, these experiences take you beyond a classic city visit.

Culinary Experiences

Culinary Ljubljana is a small world of flavours, open to different tastes, occasions, and budgets. Here, authentic local cuisine meets street food, contemporary cooking, and fine dining. Special food experiences add stories to dishes, character to places, and another memorable layer to your visit.
