Ljubljana Castle
Ljubljana Castle offers views of the city and the surrounding mountains. It can be reached on foot (about a 40 min walk from the conference venue, there are several trails leading to the castle) or by funicular railway.
Lake Bled
Lake Bled is one of Slovenia’s most popular tourist destinations. You can enjoy a walk around the lake (approximately 5 km), taste the traditional Bled cream cake (kremšnita), visit Bled Castle or take a boat trip to the island in the middle of the lake. Buses to Bled depart from Ljubljana Central Bus Station. Bus schedule can be found in AP Ljubljana timetable, ticket can be bought on the bus from the driver.
Postojna Cave
Postojna Cave is one of the largest karst cave systems in Europe. It can be reached from Ljubljana by taking a bus to Postojna bus station. From there, the cave entrance is in about a 20 minute walk.
Bus schedule can be found in AP Ljubljana timetable, ticket can be bought on the bus from the driver. Cave tickets and visitor informations can be found on the Official Postojna Cave website.
Important note on transportations!
Buses to popular touristic destinations can be crowded. We recommend avoiding the last available connection of the day. In addition, there are currently traffic jams (due to ongoing road works) on roads leading from Ljubljana towards the coast and other tourist destinations. Travel times may therefore be longer than stated in the schedule.
