Smarna gora Hill is a popular hiking point for many visitors in every time of the year. It is situated in Tacen by Ljubljana. Top of the Smarna gora Hill has two peaks, which are Smarna gora Hill (669 metres) and Grmada (676 metres). On the peak is a wonderful view to surroundings. When it is sunny weather, you can see Triglav, the highest mountain in Slovenia. The most known to me is the way from Tacen, where will expect you the free parking place. From here to the peak is about 30 to 40 minutes of walking. Towards to the end is the slope more steep. Here is the St. Antony's bell. Your wish will fulfil if you pull the bell, but just once. On Smarna gora Hill is the interesting late Gothic church in which are also organized weddings. After written sources was on the peak the castle with the chapel already before the year 1216. Around the church are walls with defensive towers. These were built in the end of the 15th century to protect residents before Turkish invasions. Beside the church is the restaurant Ledinek, where they have delicious Slovenian food. The most known are the tea and salty pretzel. If you wish, you can use comfortable chairs for resting. Children can play at the playground. In Smarna gora Hill are also organized photographic, artistic, sports and musical events.
