A Tale of Two Villages

Our guide will accompany us in Leše on a very interesting path from the heart of the village to its outskirts, where the two famous Leše churches stand at a beautiful spot. We can expect some walking, which will be enlivened by beautiful views, interesting facts about village life then and now, and tales full of secrets. Perhaps we will even catch a glimpse of some shy fairy-tale creatures that teem in the spruce forests.
We will begin to discover the story of Leše at “Frlešcimer.” Other names for the building are ‘pozivalnica’ or ‘klicalnica’ (calling station). At 5 AM, a bell at the top of the building would ring, calling miners to work. A museum is now arranged there, where we will first watch a short film about the village from a bird’s-eye perspective. Then, we will get to know the Leše twins. This is what the locals call the churches of St. Anne and St. Volbenk. They are situated in a wonderful location amidst pristine nature, offering beautiful views of the surroundings.
We continue our exploration of Koroška in the tourist village of Šentanel, known for its many tourist farms, excellent cuisine, and even better beverages. Various poets and composers, inspired by the beauty of the Koroška mountains, were also born in the village.
With our guide, we will stroll through the heart of the village, visit the Church of St. Daniel, and other attractions. This mountain village lies right along the cider road, offering expansive views of the highest peak, Peca, and the beloved Uršlja gora. We will stop at the statue of King Matjaž, and the guide will recount legends associated with the mountains and King Matjaž, so we will realize that we have truly stepped into the mythical world of Koroška for a day. After the tour, you can indulge in Koroška cuisine and local cider – ‘mošt’ (additional charge).
