The best hikes from bus stations around Dobrna

Great view, because a lot of deforestation is taking place (unfortunately the area is currently pretty devastated by the harvester and the paths are muddy)

The harvester has left some scars on the landscape, but now you have a fantastic view

Nice campsite right on the lake!

Some crossings are quite tricky. Should take čare whre to turn left and after 100m right

Galerija Velenje is located in the heart of the city, next to Titov trg. It is a modernist building erected in 1971 based on a design by architect Adi Miklavc (1937-2002). It focuses on exposition, research, documentation and pedagogical work. With almost a thousand works, its collection is among the most important in Slovenia and includes, in addition to paintings and sculptures of modern and contemporary Slovenian art, also works by ALUO students of graphics, photography and drawings, as well as an international collection of paintings. Since 2015 it has hosted the Center for Creative Industries, an incubator of ideas for the 10 municipalities of the Savinja and Šalek region, both in a strictly artistic and architectural sense, encouraging cooperation between artists and the economy. http://www.galerijavelenje.si/

The Promenada (riverside) area is located in the center of Velenje. On the northern side the promenade ends at Trg mladosti (near the school and health centre), while on the southern side its end is bordered by Cankarjeva Street. With its position, the Promenade constitutes a dividing line between the service area and the work area of the city. It represents the fundamental communication artery that pupils and students (and not only) use daily to access the city centre. The promenade is crossed by the Paka river, over which a new bridge has been built. The new two-storey garage building, located on the north side, along Tomšičeva Street, is also part of the promenade. With the renovation of the riverfront, the city has obtained a modern and attractive area for walking, meeting and socializing, taking advantage of the natural qualities of the area.

Kulturni dom Velenje (House of Culture) is a center intended for holding cultural events, film shows, symposiums. It is a 1959 work by the architect Oton Gaspari (1911 - 1991). The building is located north-west of Titova trg, a modern city platform defined by socialist public buildings. The cultural center building is certainly one of the most symbolic of post-war Slovenian architecture. The architectural expression of the exterior and interior, including the concept of the floor plan and all the details, has a distinctive style of the 1950s. https://www.festival-velenje.si/

Completed between the end of 2022 and the beginning of 2023, Vista Park is an extremely evocative place to host concerts, festivals and large events. The entire complex extends for more than 46,000 m² and is able to accommodate up to 30,000 visitors. The stage area is one of the largest in Slovenia and offers state-of-the-art technical support. The architectural design of the space was inspired by the mysterious image of the Pozoj dragon, with its attractive viewing platform that invites you to climb 14 meters and enjoy an exceptional view of Lake Velenje. To the east you can see Kinta Kunte, an interesting garden settlement. To the north you can see the surrounding hills (Lubela, Vodemlja, Razborje) and Uršlja Gora, up to the slopes of Peca. Towards the west you can see Smrekovec and Golte. On the south-east side, beyond the town of Velenje, the view opens onto Paški Kozjak. The surroundings of Vista Park invite guests to stroll on the paths among the green islands that are home to more than 11,000 newly planted trees and shrubs. There is a tennis court, a beach volleyball court and even a bowling alley. The area is also designed for the enjoyment of cyclists, skateboarders and skaters. There is also a nice children's playground with huge 5m high anancus and mastodon sculptures. Below the viewing platform there is a tourist information center (TIC) and the BarVista, from whose terrace a 50 meter long pier begins which invites you to observe the water surface up close. www.visitsaleska.si/en/vista-2/
