Self - Guided experience
Explore the local folklore, culture, and history, solve riddles, and connect with nature and between each other while walking along the “ Enchanted forest theme trail” in the beautiful Alpine nature ON YOUR OWN.
The only thing you need is to purchase a bag with a booklet and other accessories and get to the starting point where you can start with the adventure.
PROGRAM
Once you have a bag with all the accessories, find your way to Hom, to St. Catherine church. This is where your adventure starts.
At the end of the parking lot where the trail starts ascending, you enter the “Enchanted forest”. Divide the tasks between the members like a wolf family in a wolf pack. It is very important to designate the person who will walk first and the person who will walk last in the line.
The trail takes you from point to point. Each point is like an open forest classroom where you can observe, play, feel, learn & enjoy nature.
The main task of the forest adventure is to solve the riddles along the way, unlock the hut where the forest bandit lives and ultimately report him to the vigilant Enchanted Forest police.

HOW TO GET TO HOM HILL
If you are coming with a car, click HERE.
If you are walking, click HERE.
There are two routes leading to the summit of Hom Hill. One is longer and wider, suitable for cars and vans, while the other is shorter, narrower, and more suited to hikers. If using Google Maps to locate a meeting point, it may direct you along the narrower route, which can be challenging for drivers. Therefore, we advise against using it if you're driving.
Arriving by car: from the direction of Bled, turn right before reaching Gostilna Kurej in Zasip village, and follow the road and smaller signs leading to Hom Hill. Leave your car in the parking lot by St. Catherine church.
Arriving on foot: from the direction of Bled, proceed past Gostilna Kurej on your right, then keep right and slightly veer left uphill till you reach St. Catherine church.
The starting point is at the parking lot by the church on Hom Hill. Look for an information board at the viewpoint; this marks the beginning of your journey into the Enchanted Forest.
