Sinja Gorica

Among the communities of the Vrhnika administrative unit, Sinja Gorica stands out for its position on the western edge of Ljubljansko barje, the broad Ljubljana Marsh. This low, water-shaped plain lies between the limestone uplands around Vrhnika and Ljubljana, and its wet meadows, drainage channels and scattered settlements give the area a markedly open character. Much of the marsh is protected within Ljubljana Marsh Nature Park. The wider Barje is also internationally significant: prehistoric pile-dwelling sites there form part of the UNESCO-listed Prehistoric Pile Dwellings around the Alps. Sinja Gorica is a good place to understand the quieter rural setting beyond Slovenia’s capital.
