Rateče village
Kranjska Gora, Slovenia

Suitable for mountain cyclists!

Tromeja is famous for its annual meetings of the three countries, as the borders of Slovenia, Austria, and Italy meet here. Despite the 357 meters altitude difference, the trail is not difficult and is extremely suitable for families with younger children, and does not require any mountaineering equipment apart from good footwear. The circular route Kranjska Gora – Podkoren – Tromeja – Rateče – Kranjska Gora is also one of the most scenic mountain bike routes in Kranjska Gora, thanks to its views of the Planica Valley, the Karavanke Mountains, and the Austrian two-thousand-meter mountains.

How to get to the top?

There are two routes to Tromeja, one through the village of Podkoren and the other through the village of Rateče. We recommend that you choose the first one for the ascent, as it is more gently sloping. To avoid going back the same way, you can go around via the village of Rateče.

From the Reset Apartments, turn left towards the village of Podkoren, where you turn right towards the Korensko sedlo (a mountain pass) and follow the road all the way to the crossroads just before the top of the mountain pass, where there is a small signpost for Tromeja. Here, turn left onto a wide macadam path that crosses a small stream a few times and leads downhill all the way to the top of Velika Peč mountain, where there is a common border point between Slovenia, Austria, and Italy.

The trail is well signposted and leads mostly through extensive forests, which are a popular spot for mushroom pickers in autumn, all the way to the edge of the ski resort, where you can enjoy extraordinary views of the surrounding area. Go around the ski slope on the left and after a few meters, you will reach your destination.

Return along the same path or turn towards the village of Rateče, known for its good village restaurants and tavernas. From Rateče you return along a cycling route that leads directly to our apartments.
