Ljubljana offers a great deal of green surfaces where dogs and humans alike can enjoy nature. In the heart of the city lies Park Tivoli, the biggest park in Ljubljana, located right under the green slopes of Šišenski hrib and Rožnik. Apart from that, there are many parks and promenades that you and your dog may enjoy, all across the city. Maybe you and your dog would enjoy some friendly company and play time in one of our two fenced dog parks. From the city centre, you can also take a nice uphill walk to the Ljubljana castle or a nice stroll through the old city centre, right along the river Ljubljanica, which may be more to the liking of those who prefer the excitement of the city and its historical treasures. Our capital is also surrounded by several hills, where those who enjoy hiking can take on easier or more difficult walking trails.
Whatever your preference, Ljubljana certainly has something for everyone to enjoy. Here is a list of locations you can visit with your dog. Learn more about each place by clicking on the name.

PET STORES
They say it’s best to bring your own dog food and equipment with you when you travel with your dog. But in case you run out of your dogs favorite food, in case you loose a ball in the lake or a leash breaks, Ljubljana’s pet stores are well stocked with everything you could need for your four-legged best friend.
