Th e Goršek farm is located in the village of Lipa, just a stone's throw from the

down the slopes of Rogla, your hostess Hilda, an excellent cook, will charm
you with her cooking magic. Her delicious bread, prepared according to her
grandmothers' recipe in the traditional bread oven, is famous far and wide. You
will be delighted with her štruklji, potica, and horseradish prepared according
to a special recipe, and you will also enjoy their delicious homemade cold cuts,
which go well with a glass of homemade brandy.
Th e Goršek family will happily invite you to participate in husking corn, picking
grapes, or preparing sausages. If you want to learn the secrets of cooking, hostess

In the middle of Stranice, next to the church and a chapel and not far from the
forest, is the Arzenšek farm. Th is is a genuine farm with horses, cows, pigs, dogs,
cats, chickens, and bees. It's a real little zoo that city children marvel at, and
the farm is especially full in summer with returning guests. Meat, milk, and
vegetables are produced on the farm, the bread is homemade, and everything is
complemented with homemade wine and blackberry brandy. Th e pumpkins are
a specialty: in compotes, stewed, roasted, in pies . . . With so many animals, there
is always enough work to join in on the farm. Not far away are the swimming
pools of the Zreče Health Resort, there are numerous trails through the forests
below Pohorje, and the ski slopes of Rogla are only 19 kilometers away. Guests

of the hostess.
