Cerkno is the administrative, economic and cultural center of Cerkljanska, inviting you among one of its green valleys, extensive forests, sunny plateaus and scenic peaks, offering luxurious views.

A uniquely rich and varied landscape, with pristine nature, historical and cultural monuments, beautiful places, as well as diverse culinary offer and friendly people, invites you to visit and get to know this special part of Slovenia.

In winter you can enjoy a modern ski center or visit the traditional event "laufarija" of the Cerkno region and in the summer set out to the picturesque archaeological site Divje babe, where the oldest instrument in the world, the Neanderthal bone flute, was discovered inside a Karst cave in Paleolithic layers, or you can stop at the partisan hospital Franja, which bears the European Heritage Label, and along the way visit the birthplace of the writer France Bevk in Zakojca.
