About location

Tržič combines an Alpine setting with a long mercantile tradition in a way that reflects its position at the foot of the Karavanks. The town stands on the Tržiška Bistrica, close to the route through Ljubelj Pass towards Carinthia. Its old centre preserves tightly grouped houses and former workshops shaped by trade and craft. Shoemaking became a major local industry in the 19th century, a heritage still celebrated during the annual Šuštarska nedelja festival. Forested slopes rise directly beyond the town, placing Tržič in one of Slovenia’s defining mountain border regions.
