Discover Slovenske Konjice

Slovenske Konjice offers a range of reasons to stay: hikes with clear route details, paths through the forest, the historic layout of Stari trg, and insights into firefighting history and beekeeping. When choosing what to do, it is especially helpful to distinguish between a longer circular hike, shorter hiking options and cultural activities in town. This lets you shape your trip around whether you mainly want to spend time outdoors, explore the historic town centre or plan visits to specific attractions.

Hiking and forests in Slovenske Konjice

The Slovenske Konjice–Stolpnik hike starts at the Slovenske Konjice cemetery. The round trip covers 13 km and leads to a 25 m-high observation tower. The Slovenske Konjice–Skala hike is considerably shorter, at 3 km for the round trip. It starts at the town’s sports centre and leads to a viewpoint on Konjiška gora. The two routes therefore differ both in length and in their stated destinations: one leads to an observation tower, the other to a viewpoint.

The Zmajčkova gozdna učna pot offers a different experience: this 3 km forest educational trail has twelve themed stops. Its character is shaped not only by the route and destination, but also by the learning stations. Above Slovenske Konjice, Konjiška gora offers a network of hiking trails, forest educational trails, parks and other opportunities for recreation in the woods. So, alongside specific routes, you can choose an educational trail and a range of recreational areas in the forest.

Old Town, town park and firefighting history

The historic layout of Slovenske Konjice has been preserved in Stari trg. A stream is one of its defining features, and the area is also suitable for walks. Together with the town park, Stari trg took on its present appearance after renovation in 2013. The area is considered particularly visitor-friendly.

The Muzej gasilstva Dravinjske doline is known for its collections on the cultural and social history of firefighters. You can visit the museum of PGD Slovenske Konjice by prior arrangement.

Beekeeping, wine and golf

At Čebelarstvo Žvikart, visitors can sample sweet honey products. The business also showcases its beekeeping and explains the importance of apiculture. The Zlati grič wine shop offers something different: wines from Slovenske Konjice and homemade dishes from the surrounding area.

The golf course in Škalce also offers a practical option to consider when planning: it lies among vineyards close to the centre of Slovenske Konjice and has nine holes. So, in addition to hikes and town walks, you can also consider a golf course and regional offerings featuring honey, beekeeping, wine and dishes from the surrounding area.
