You can’t come to the capital city without visiting the Ljubljana Castle. Start from the center, walk past the river bank, grab a coffee (try Kavarna Čopomana, they also have terrific cakes) and walk up to the impressive hilltop castle, located just above the city. You can also reach the castle by tram (or by funicular, which at 5€ is a steal and is a lot of fun!). The Ljubljana Castle is much like a time machine, taking visitors back in time to the various periods of the country’s past. It also has a great courtyard and restaurant (Strelec) to eat at and enjoy the views.

Beautiful castle on a hill top that overlooks the capital of Ljubljana in Slovenia. You can drive up to the castle, take the cable car, or you can hike up to it. We decided to hike up to it. That was an experience of its own! You will definitely get your steps by hiking up to it. Beware, It’s free to get into the castle but there is a fee to enter into the castle museums. The view from the top is spectacular and a definitely worth a visit. There’s a gift shop and a few restaurants on the Castle Court Yard, give those a shot if you’re interested.

Quite a steep hike to the castle! Not for elderly or kids. Would recommend to wear proper shoes too. Castle is beautiful, many places to visit for free. The view from the top is phenomenal . It's a must if you are in Ljubljana

This is it! The main attraction! Tickets are cheap and they offer student discounts. A proper tour inside the castle should take about 1h-1h30. Highlights are the viewing tower (ofc!) and the chapel!

One of the most beautiful castles I've ever visited. The renovation made a great blend between modern design and tradition. Many unique exhibitions, nice vibe, great and clean design and helpful staff. The only issue is the expensive ticket prices (19 euro for a ticket with an audio guide) and even they want 1 euro extra for the toilet which doesn't even accept credit cards!

A beautiful castle. The history was very interesting and the galleries describing the history was great. True, most of the visit can be done without a ticket but the ticket we purchased got us in to see everything including galleries etc. best to go prior to lunch as it got real busy when we were leaving about 1145. Nice, funicular was enjoyable. Overall a nice visit. Castle has been used in many different ways. Pretty and interesting.

Nice experience to walk around the castle and experience some of the history of Ljubljana and Slovenia. Stunning views of the city from the tower. You need a ticket to access dome areas including the tower. We went up by the funicular and walked down to the city, nice calm 12 min walk. Don’t miss the sunset views on the terrace outside the castle. Small cafe with lovely sunset views.

Highly recommend visiting the castle. The views from the tower are stunning. We purchased the basic entrance fee which we were happy with. Do not miss the Museum of Puppetry at the castle (it's included with your entrance ticket). We rode the funicular roundtrip, but friends told us the walk up is doable.

The castle has been restored and now houses a museum about puppetry, which is really good. Also there is a 4D film to watch about the history of the castle, also very good. I really enjoyed the time I spent at the castle (roughly 3 hours). Great views from the top of the tower, too. 99 steps up but doable, even for oldies like me.
