From the car park, head straight to the banks of the Ljubljanica River, and continue left (right bank of the Ljubljanica) until you reach the famous Triple Bridge, which is located right next to Prešeren Square. The bridge is the work of the famous Slovenian architect Plečnik.

We suggest that you set off in the evening, after 5 pm, as the trip to the Slovenian capital Ljubljana is not a full-day trip like the other trips described in the “Explore Slovenia” section. Ljubljana is a city of bridges, so we suggest that you start with a walk along the Ljubljanica River to experience the pulse of the city and explore its beautiful bridges, terraces, and the many cafés that line its banks.

You can continue your walk along the right bank of the Ljubljanica as far as the Butcher’s Bridge, or a little further on to the Dragon’s Bridge, where you can also cross the river and return along the left bank to Plečnik’s bridge through the Ljubljana Market.
