Hiking

An exceptional destination that is a true paradise for hikers.

Kope is the perfect choice for anyone looking to spend active time in nature. Its extensive hiking network offers 7 marked trails of varying difficulty that lead through unspoiled Pohorje forests, across scenic meadows and all the way up to peaks with breathtaking views.

If you want a view right from the start, the Kope – Vrh Kope trail is a great choice, taking you to the summit with beautiful panoramic views in about an hour's walk. If you're after something easygoing, ideal options include Smrekov gozd, Močilnik – izviri or the Children's Trail, which are also suitable for families and relaxed walks in nature.

A special experience awaits at Pungart, where you'll find a walk among 13 bioenergy points — a place where our ancestors already recognized the power of nature. This trail is an excellent choice for anyone wanting to combine movement with a sense of calm and renewal.

For slightly longer and more varied hikes, we recommend the Panoramic Trail, which offers views in every direction across Pohorje, or the Koča na Kopah – Grmovškov dom trail, which leads between popular mountain spots. The most experienced hikers can take on Kopniška stena, a more demanding ascent rewarded with a unique sense of achievement and outstanding views.

Hiking at Kope is not just movement — it's an experience. It's a chance to switch off from everyday life, connect with nature and recharge your energy in the embrace of fresh mountain air.
