Krsko: G1-5 - Drnovo
Krško has served as a market town in the Lower Sava Valley since the Middle Ages. Set on the Sava River in eastern Slovenia, it developed at a crossing between the Krško Basin and the wooded Posavje hills, on the route linking Ljubljana with Zagreb. The compact old centre on the river’s right bank retains medieval street lines, while newer neighbourhoods extend towards the plain. Krško is nationally significant for the Krško Nuclear Power Plant near Vrbina, Slovenia’s only nuclear power station. The river remains central to the town’s identity and to the open farmland of the surrounding basin.

Slovenia occupies a meeting point of the Alps, the Pannonian Plain, the Dinaric mountains and the Adriatic coast in south-central Europe. The Julian Alps rise in the northwest, where Triglav is the country’s highest mountain, while the Soča River is known for its clear turquoise water. Karst terrain has shaped caves such as Postojna Cave and the Škocjan Caves, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Ljubljana combines a riverside old town with works by architect Jože Plečnik; farther east, wine-growing regions and thermal springs add another dimension. Slovenian food reflects Alpine, Mediterranean and Balkan influences. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Slovenia and the northern Adriatic.
