Dravograd
At the crossroads of Koroška
About Dravograd
At the junction of three valleys, where three Koroška rivers meet, lies the first Slovenian municipality on the Drava River – Dravograd. Surrounded by green hills between the Kozjak, Strojna and Pohorje mountain ranges, it stands where old and new routes have crossed since Roman times and the era of pilgrims. You will be captivated by the Drava River, beneath which lies a unique mineral – dravite.
Libeliče is a settlement right by the Austrian border, with a beautifully preserved old centre. In addition to the famous 12th-century ossuary, you will also find a black kitchen – the cradle of Koroška cuisine – and a rural collection that presents life and work in the past.
Lake Dravograd is an ornithological reserve that provides refuge for more than 150 bird species, and its themed trails offer excellent opportunities for birdwatching. Along the paths, keen anglers will also find jetties where they can try to catch their latest trophy.
The fully renovated Bukovje Manor offers accommodation and the option to host larger celebrations, where you can feel like true nobility. Stroll through the manor garden and explore rooms that once hosted the Counts of Celje and are now part of a museum collection. Dravograd is also the crossroads of two of the most important cycling routes in the region – Drava Bike and Štrekna. With transport options for your bicycle, including bus and rail connections, exploring the surrounding area is easy and convenient.
