Hiking
The hills around Poljane and Škofja Loka offer several hiking options:
Blegoš – 1562 m
Stari vrh – 1032
Porezen – 1632 m
Pasja ravan – 1029m
Lubnik – 1024 m
Cycling
The expansive Škofjeloško hribovje hills are ideal for cycling. There are cycling trails that span through forests and pleasant villages. Mountain cyclists can test themselves on dirt trails and forest paths with varying inclines. Casual “trekking” bikers have a plethora of roads with little traffic to choose from. The trails offer beautiful views and several natural and cultural monuments, along with the local cuisine, make the trips even more interesting.
Bicycles are available for rent at the farm.
Fishing and hunting
The Visoko fishing club offers fishing along the Poljanska Sora river, stretching from Log to Hotavlje. Tickets can be purchased at the Na Vidmu restaurant in Poljane and the Silva bar in Gorenja vas.
There are five active hunting clubs in our area that organize hunting trips. Bears, wild boars and deer can be found in the forests of Poljanska dolina. The slopes of the Blegoš mountain are also home to herds of chamois.
