Postojnsko Like You’ve Never Experienced It Before: From Dragon Legends to a Tropical Jungle Beneath Mount Nanos

Have you ever had that feeling when you think you know a place inside out, only to take a small detour and discover a completely different world? That’s exactly what happened to us in the Postojna region this weekend. We were looking for something a little different – maybe even a bit unexpected – and ended up finding the perfect blend of wilderness, history and… a tropical jungle?

The photograph shows two cyclists standing beside their bicycles in a meadow, admiring a sculpture. The sculpture depicts the dragon of Postojna Cave with its mouth wide open, accompanied by the shepherd boy Jakob carrying his satchel. Traditional houses, trees, and a blue sky with scattered clouds form the backdrop.

Along Erasmus’ Cycling Trail

Erasmus’ Cycling Trail is an excellent choice for families who enjoy exploring nature at their own pace. The route starts in Razdrto and follows a quiet paved road through Veliko Ubeljsko and Malo Ubeljsko, making for a calm and easy start. It then continues through the village of Strane, where you’ll find one of the trail’s most memorable stops for both children and adults: the thickest, and according to local tradition, the oldest yew tree in Slovenia. A short break, a story about the ancient tree, and a family photo make the perfect motivation to continue.
