Just a short walk from the centre of Lovrenc na Pohorju invites you into the world of the Pohorje forest. The Farški les forest educational trail leads among the trees and alongside a stream, revealing how closely the forest, timber and water are bound up with life in Lovrenc.

Along the way you can stop, listen to the forest and gaze high up into the treetops. You will discover why even a dead tree is full of life, how to recognise animal tracks and what journey water makes from a Pohorje stream all the way to the Drava. As you explore, you are accompanied by characters from Lovrenc tales, among them the water sprite Jezernik and the dwarf Možuh.

Farški les is a pleasant destination for families, school groups and anyone who fancies a peaceful walk with a touch of curiosity. We recommend suitable outdoor footwear.
