Lisca

A view that never gets old!

Lisca

Lisca (948 m) is one of the most popular observation decks of the region of Posavje – a hill that combines beautiful nature, fresh air, views of the Sava River Valley and the feeling that you are “just the right distance away”. You can reach the top by following various paths, both simpler and more demanding, or stop just below the top, at Tončkov dom, which offers homemade food and a warm shelter for hikers.

Lisca is not only popular among hikers, it is also an excellent starting point for paragliders and climbers. In the winter, it is a popular place for sledding, and in the summer, you can enjoy a relaxed gathering in the meadows and explore views that reach all the way to Triglav. It is an ideal destination for a family trip, a recreational climb, or a quick escape from the hustle and bustle of the town.

Tončkov dom
Tončkov dom on Lisca will surely impress you with its famous Jurko’s kaiserschmarrn. At the top of Lisca, you can indulge in a very special version of this famous dish, also known in Slovenian as “šmorn”. The dish, served in a chamber pot, is named after Blaž Jurko, who built the first cottage on Lisca and welcomed many distinguished visitors. And it is precisely during one of those visits that the story of the “unfortunate Lisca kaiserschmarrn” originates from; at Tončkov dom, they will gladly tell you the story, as well as prepare and serve the dish itself. You can also read the story on the website of Tončkov dom.

Becoming a godparent to Blaufränkisch vines in the castle vineyard

Since 2007, the 500 Blaufränkisch vines growing on the sunny terraces under the walls of the castle are being cultivated by local winegrowers once more. By becoming a godparent to one of those vines, this is your chance to also become a part of this story: your name will be written on a plaque next to the vine, and you will be invited to the traditional pruning of vines and the autumn harvest to commemorate the important moments of the wine-growing year together with other godparents. These events are an excellent opportunity to enjoy some local delicacies, taste delicious castle wine, and spend some pleasant time together in the castle park. Godparents also receive a bottle of wine from the castle vineyard, made from grapes that you helped grow.
