Velika planina is famous for mountainhiking and mountaincycling. Herdsmen’s settlement The herdsmen’s settlement is known as one of few the settlements of such size in Europe and attracts many visitors throughout the year. It is distinct by its typical architecture which symbolises Velika planina. The roofs are covered with pine shingles, which extend rather low. The name of the cottage is “a herdsman hut” or “a shepher’s home”, and a pine shingle is called “šinkel”. The settlement is revived every June, when herdsmen return to the settlement and tend to their cattle until September. They are delighted to invite you to taste their dairy products or try a typical herdsmen’s lunch; sour milk and buckwheat mush. Snow Mary chapel The chapel of Snow Mary, which originally stood at the same place before the Second World War, is located slightly above the herdsmen’s settlement. It was burnt down by German soldiers during the war, and was rebuilt in 1988 on the herdsmen’s initiative. It was consecrated to Snow Mary and this is why 5th of August presents a special holiday for the chapel and the entire herdsmen’s settlement. During the summer, the masses are held every Sunday and several thousands visitors attend the sacred mass or the midnight service on Christmas. Veternica and Dovja Griča caves Veternica cave is the most popular natural site of interest on Velika planina. It is assembled of the caves Mala Jama and Velika Veternica, which came into existence when the roof caved in as the result of rock disintegration. The cave Velika veternica is more popular. It is known for its patches of snow, which remain in the cave also during the summer. Dovja Griča cave is located in the valley Tiha Dolina and is 9m deep. It is known for the legends which were happening near by. The cave, therefore, sheltered many good and bad characters, which were mostly invented by herdsmen themselves. The most known are the legends about wild men who lived in Dovja Griča, also known as the wild rock, as suggested in the name itself. Preskar museum The museum is located in the herdsmen’s settlement and is opened every day during the pasture season. It is distinguished by its appearance, since the small, grey herdsmen’s hut is located in the stone part of the settlement. After the Second World War, Andrej Preskar built his cottage with the original oval floor plan, as it was before the war. Today, this is the only cottage which is distinct from the other cottages with its shape, size and modestly decorated interior. Among other things in the cottage, there is also an example of “trnič”- a special sort of cheese known in this area High mountains – Konj, Korosica and Ojstrica If you are expert in mountainhiking, I can send you also some proposal for visiting the mountains nearby (mountain Konj – 1900 m, mountain Korošica 1810 m, mountain Ojstrica 2350 m). You can visit also the vally of the river Kamniška bistrica and the springs of this river. First of all - do not forget that Chalet Encijan is located high in the mountains (1600 M), so the appropriate equipment (hiking boots, warm cloths) is really necessary. ## Property amenities ### Kitchen - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - Bedroom ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 1,076 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, oven, stovetop, dishwasher](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/81000000/80760000/80759200/80759109/582bfc05.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Wooden Forest villa- hot tube, sauna, nature!
