Holiday apartment in Preddvor – discover Dvor Castle and Lake Črnava

Dvor Castle stands in the center of Preddvor. It dates back to the 12th century. Tours of Dvor Castle showcase a historic pharmacy, a printing workshop, and a wine cellar. These three areas are among the stops included in a tour of the castle.

Culture

Other specific sites also shape the character of Preddvor. Centuries-old sequoias stand in Preddvor on the site of a former castle park. A mountain hut stands next to the Church of St. James in Preddvor. Thus, a former castle park, the named church surroundings, and Dvor Castle with its historic interiors all meet in the town.

Trails and routes

The “Skrivnosti preddvorskih štorkelj” trail is suitable for all generations. It begins a five-minute walk from the lower school car park. The route therefore has a clearly designated starting point and an equally clearly specified walking distance to the beginning of the trail. A relatively easy ascent begins at the car park in front of Turn Castle and takes just under two hours.

Another option is the “Od jezera do jezera” cycling route. It begins in the center of Preddvor at the Church of St. Peter and heads toward Lake Črnava. In its name, the route connects the starting point in the town center with the direction toward the lake, while the ascent in front of Turn Castle is described separately as starting from its own car park and taking just under two hours.

Nature

Several specific activities and places are mentioned around Lake Črnava. The official paragliding landing site is on the western shore of Lake Črnava. Fishing from a boat, fly-fishing, and spinning are possible at Lake Črnava. Chub, brown trout, and rainbow trout are found in Lake Črnava. Visitors to Preddvor can also enjoy a relaxing walk around the lake.

Local traditions

At the Kmečka tržnica in the center of Preddvor, local farmers and producers occasionally offer their products at the stalls. Štoflcfest is rooted in its own tradition: the festival of candies and sweet experiences keeps alive the memory of the traditional “štoflce,” homemade candies from nearby Bašelj.

In the municipality of Preddvor, Čebelarstvo Kokl offers guided tours of the apiary and beekeeping museum, honey and bee-product tastings, and beekeeping workshops. Alongside the market and the festival, beekeeping, the museum, tastings, and workshops are therefore also among the specifically named local offerings.

Included services, price components, as well as booking and cancellation conditions can also be viewed directly in the respective offer. This keeps the features of individual listings transparent without assuming properties that are not stated. On the offer pages, you can view and compare the listings.
