Some places simply stay with you long after you leave — and Slovenia Eco Resort is definitely one of them. Hidden beneath the breathtaking Velika Planina plateau near Kamnik, this unique resort feels like a peaceful alpine village surrounded by forests, mountains, and the soothing sounds of the Kamniška Bistrica River.
Just a short drive from Ljubljana, Slovenia Eco Resort combines authentic Slovenian tradition, beautiful nature, comfort, and unforgettable family experiences. Everything here feels connected to the local alpine culture — from the wooden architecture and homemade cuisine to the relaxed atmosphere that immediately makes guests feel at home.
Sleeping in Traditional Shepherd Huts
One of the highlights of the resort are the charming wooden cottages inspired by the famous shepherd huts of Velika Planina. Built from natural wood and surrounded by greenery, the cottages perfectly blend traditional alpine design with modern comfort.
Inside, the spaces feel warm, cozy, and peaceful. Large windows open beautiful views of the mountains and forests, while private terraces create the perfect spot for morning coffee or relaxing evenings beneath the stars.
Families especially love the larger cottages, while couples often choose the romantic glamping houses for a quiet nature escape far from the noise of everyday life.
A Paradise for Children and Animal Lovers
What truly makes Slovenia Eco Resort special is the experience it offers families with children. The entire resort feels like a giant natural playground where kids can safely explore, play, and connect with animals.
The eco farm is without doubt one of the most popular parts of the resort. Children can meet sheep, deer, birds, rabbits, ducks and other domestic animals while learning about traditional farm life in a fun and authentic way.
Feeding the animals quickly becomes the highlight of the stay for many young guests. Watching children run freely across the green resort grounds, laugh with the animals, and spend entire days outdoors creates exactly the kind of memories families hope for when travelling together.
Parents especially appreciate the calm and safe atmosphere, where everyone can simply slow down and enjoy quality time surrounded by nature.
Traditional Slovenian Cuisine in a Beautiful Alpine Setting
The resort’s restaurant perfectly completes the entire experience. The menu focuses on local ingredients, homemade flavours, and traditional Slovenian dishes inspired by the Kamnik and Velika Planina region. The menu highlights dishes baked under an iron bell, premium steaks and local specialties served beside a scenic pond.
Whether enjoying breakfast in the morning sun or dinner on the terrace surrounded by mountain views, the atmosphere feels relaxed, authentic, and welcoming. The food itself is simple, fresh, and comforting — exactly what guests crave after a day spent hiking, cycling, or exploring the nearby Alps.
Relaxation Beneath the Alps
Slovenia Eco Resort is not only ideal for families, but also for couples and anyone searching for peace and relaxation in nature. Guests can enjoy the wellness area, outdoor pool during summer, riverside walks, and stunning panoramic views from the resort’s impressive wooden lookout tower.
The location also makes the perfect starting point for exploring Velika Planina, one of Slovenia’s most beautiful alpine destinations. Hiking trails, cycling routes, traditional shepherd villages, and breathtaking mountain scenery are all just moments away.
What makes Slovenia Eco Resort truly unforgettable is its authenticity. It never feels like just another resort — it feels like a place created with genuine love for nature, Slovenian tradition, and meaningful family experiences.
And that is exactly why so many guests leave already planning their next visit.
Camper Stop & Campsite for Motorhomes
Slovenia Eco Resort is also becoming increasingly popular among camper van travellers and motorhome guests. The resort offers a beautifully arranged autocamp with spacious pitches for camper vans, caravans, and motorhomes right next to the Kamniška Bistrica River. Guests have access to electricity, water connections, modern sanitary facilities, and stunning views of the surrounding Alps.
What makes the campsite especially unique is that it offers much more than a typical camper stop. Guests staying in the autocamp can also enjoy the resort’s atmosphere, restaurant, wellness area, animal feeding experiences for children, and peaceful natural surroundings. The combination of glamping, traditional Slovenian hospitality, and camper-friendly facilities creates a relaxed boutique camping experience that feels both authentic and comfortable.
