Solčava between nature and wool culture – find ski hotels

In the surroundings of Solčava lies Robanov kot, a glacial valley in the Upper Savinja Valley. Around the village, nature, historical sites, wool craftsmanship and regional products come together with specific routes and events.

Nature

Also in the surroundings of Solčava, on Mount Olševa, lies Potočka zijavka. It is a Palaeolithic archaeological site with remains of Ice Age animals and prehistoric artefacts. The two landscape references represent different periods: Robanov kot is part of the natural character of the Upper Savinja Valley, while Potočka zijavka is associated with traces of the Stone Age and early human remains.

Culture

Another cultural reference point is the present-day sanctuary, which was built between 1461 and 1485. At Atelje Franc and Liza in Solčava, a wool-felting workshop using local Solčava wool is offered. The wild-plant workshop there includes collecting and tasting herbs. Atelje also offers a two-hour mindfulness walk through nature.

Events

Solčavski dnevi has traditionally taken place every year in July in Solčava since 1992. The Solčavski dnevi programme included a walk along the water route in Solčava. The 14th edition of the Bicka Sheep Wool Festival was announced for September in Solčava. The Bicka Sheep Wool Festival includes demonstrations of wool processing and felting workshops. Bicka's culinary specialities at Center Rinka are also part of the festival.

Things to do

A guided cycling tour on the Solčava Panoramic Road begins at Center Rinka in Solčava. The circular trail to the Solčava yew tree also starts there. The duration indicated for this circular trail is approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Thus, Center Rinka is the starting point for both a guided cycling experience and a circular trail with a clearly defined duration.

Regional products

In the surroundings of Solčava, Eko Kmetija Ramšak offers a visitor experience focused on processing organic cow's milk. Optional tasting of homemade organic products is also available. This connection to regional production adds another specific location in the surroundings of Solčava to the offerings at Atelje Franc and Liza and the festival's culinary specialities.
