Upravna Enota Vrhnika

The Ljubljanica River and the karst margin define much of Upravna Enota Vrhnika – its springs, marsh-edge fields and wooded hills have shaped settlement, farming and travel. Near Vrhnika, the river’s source area includes the karst springs of Močilnik and Retovje; eastward lies the broad wetland lowland of the Ljubljana Marshes. The town developed on the site of Roman Nauportus, an important stop on routes connecting the Adriatic world with the Danube basin. Vrhnika is also the birthplace of Ivan Cankar, one of Slovenia’s central modern writers, commemorated by the Cankar Memorial House. Trails, cycling routes and quiet roads link the river, marsh and forested slopes.
