Tunjice
The village of Tunjice lies just a stone's throw from the town. A varied and green landscape that surrounds the village offers the visitors a complete relaxation and authenticity. A pilgrimage late Baroque parish church of St. Anne is located on Vinski Vrh Hill. The village of Tunjice boasts also a holistic health centre - the open-air healing resort of Tunjice. The wider area is outstanding and includes some of Slovenia's most unique fossil sites. The fossils are kept at the Natural History Museum of Slovenia.
Motnik
At the end of Tuhinj Valley, the village of Motnik is located, boasting numerous cycling and hiking trails. Motnik is the birthplace of the famous Slovenian literary collector, Gašper Križnik. Each year, a festival bearing the same name is held in Motnik (Križnik Fairytale Festival).
Sveti Miklavž na Gori Hill
The best way to reach the Gora Hill is to start at Snovik Spa and head towards the village of Snovik. Afterwards, you need to turn right at the chapel. The marked trail will lead you to the village of Hruševka. Once you cross Hruševka Stream, turn right onto the cart track that leads to the top of Gora, where the fortified Church of Saint Nicholas with the caretaker’s quarters is located. The oldest church parts stood here already in late antiquity, which means that the spot has always been an important strategic point. Next to the church, wooden caretaker's headquarters with open fire kitchen are located, again presenting an important part of architectural heritage. The trail to Sv. Miklavž na Gori is well marked, as it continues towards Preval.
