How to get to Bela Krajina

The tourist destination Bela Krajina is located in the south-east of Slovenia and comprises the following municipalities Črnomelj, Metlika and Semič. We are bordering Croatia, which is why many people know us as a destination where they stop when they go to the seaside. With no motorway, tunnels or expressways, we have a reputation in Slovenia as a less accessible destination. But this "inaccessibility" gives Bela Krajina a special charm and tranquillity, and you a place to rest.

How to get to Bela Krajina?

We'll take Ljubljana, the capital, as our starting point

• By train: It's true - the train ride from Ljubljana takes about 3 hours, if there are no delays. But this ride is a real experience. In between you can celebrate your birthday twice and listen to all the songs on YouTube.
  Choose the link Ljubljana - Novo Mesto - Črnomelj - Metlika and enjoy a century-long ride. Click HERE to choose your timetable.
