$(Zlo\236enka Kamen v srcu) - Razvojni center Srca Slovenije$

drivers and rafters who transported goods on the Sava in the past. It is little wonder why they chose to attend mass here – the view across the valley and over the river is magnificent. The evenings on the tops of the Posavje Hills are especially beautiful when the sun sets. If you already feel tired and hungry you can stop at Mežnar tourist farm in Katarija. If you walk on a well marked Badjura Trail (Badjurova pot) you will arrive at GEOSS, the geometric centre of Slovenia. Take a break here and treat yourself with some fine traditional food and a sip of home produced fruit brandy or juice at Vrabec Restaurant. But maybe you have already tried some countryside fruit delicacies on the way. Continue the walk to Vače. You can stay here for hours and you will still have so much more to see in this archeologically interesting village. Two top attractions of the village are St. Andrew’s church (Cerkev sv. Andreja) and a fossilised sea 84 www.dediscina.si
shore from Miocene era. You can learn about the history of Vače in a very unique and amusing way – by visiting a family theatre Kolenc. Once you have visited everything in Vače that you wanted to see, walk through the Avenue of creativity (Aleja ustvarjalnosti) to Klenik, where you can sit for a moment or two beside an enlarged copy of the famous Vače situla, an Iron Age bronze vessel. Then climb up the marked mountain trail to Zasavska sveta gora, a small mountain, which is an important pilgrimage route even today. Here you can rest and eat and if the night should surprise you, you can also stay overnight here. You can return into the valley from Zasavska sveta gora either by following a marked trail for the railway station in Sava or you can walk to Zagorje and return from there to the starting point by train. 85
