Our apartment is nestled in the charming mountain village of Ratece just 5 minutes drive from Kranjska Gora, Slovenia’s best know mountain resort. It’s rare that such a peaceful quaint village has so much to offer but Rateče is no ordinary village, sitting at the crossroads of three distinct cultures. The village itself has a very rich history being the origin of some of the oldest Slovene manuscripts. See the copies of the famous Rateče manuscripts in the Church of St. Thomas in Rateče, one of the four oldest records of the Slovene language. There are a number of excellent local restaurants and supermarkets at walking distance. Triglav National Park Information Centre is just 13 km away. Mount Lussari Cable Car and Parish Church of St. Jakob are local landmarks, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at Kransjka Gora Ski Resort and Planica Ski Jump. Planica Valley and Church of the Assumption of Virgin Mary are also worth visiting. From the village at the very top of the Upper Sava Valley, there is a huge range of natural wonders very close by, the river from which the valley gets its name, Sava (Slovenia’s longest), has its source just out of town in the Zelenci Nature Reserve, whilst to the south of town the spectacular Planica glacial valley – world famous for its giant ski jumping slopes - opens up and extends into the Julian Alps and Triglav National Park onto the spectacular Tamar Valley. North of the village lies Mt. Peč - the exact point where the three countries meets - with the ascent to the summit making a pleasant walk or ride. Then there is also the magnificent Belopeški (or Fusine in Italian) Lakes a short way west over the border.
