Shades of green on the Trnovo and Banjšice Plateau

Just a few kilometres from the urban hustle and bustle, and a few hundred metres over Nova Gorica, a whole new world opens up on the Banjšice Plateau. Head out to the trails and paths to a world of endless meadows and characteristic sinkholes. On the east of the tableland you can cut across the dry Čepovan Valley only to find yourself in the extensive woods of the Trnovo Forest Plateau. As a quirk of nature, this area is characterized by hollows with temperature inversion. Another cool natural feature is the Velika ledena jama (Big Ice Cave).
