An altitude of 1,307m makes Soriška planina a perfect starting point for many shorter and longer trips. From the parking place under the Brunarica cabin you can embark on one of easy hiking routes and head for nearby peaks that offer fantastic views, such as Dravh (1,548m) and Lajnar (1,549m), Slatnik (1609 m), all the way to Možic (1,603m) and further on to Šavnik (1,516m).
More experienced hikers can make their way further towards the east, across Vrh Bače to Kobla (1,450m) and perhaps even to Črna prst (1,792m). Hiking trails also open towards the east, across Danjarska planina to a 1,679m high lookout location Altemaver, and further on to the hut on Ratitovec (1,667m).
Hikers can explore the mountain scenery either in summer or in winter. In winter we recommend you check the weather forecast before you head out and wear appropriate equipment. For more information on selected tours you can turn to the obliging staff at guesthouse Lajnar reception.

JULIANA TRAIL
Although the Juliana Trail is a modern acquisition of the Julian Alps Association, it still follows the ancient and centuries-old paths of the local people. They have guided the lives of the people of the Julian Alps for centuries, linking their fields and pastures and strengthening the ties between isolated homesteads. It is the cohesion of communities that has charted the life’s paths of generations. The Juliana Trail takes you through the Julian Alps as they were known in the past and as they are still lived today – a step away from everyday life and a little bit back in time, but always with an eye forward. Soriška planina is located near some stages of the long-distance route and is both, a good starting point and a place to stop on the way.
