Razvoj je potekal skozi štiri različne družbene sisteme in kljub temu je planinska organizacija od začetka do danes uspela ohraniti svoje osnovno poslanstvo, to je organiziranje različnih aktivnosti v gorskem svetu, skrb za planinsko infrastrukturo (planinske poti in planinske koče), varovanje gorske narave, skrb za varnost v gorah in skrb za planinsko kulturo. Skozi čas se je tem osnovnim dejavnostim pridružil še širok spekter dejavnosti, ki so tako ali drugače povezane z gorami. V Letopisu Planinske zveze Slovenije za leto 2014 smo poskušali pripraviti pregled vseh najpomembnejših dogodkov in aktivnosti, ki smo jih na podlagi sprejetega programa dela izvedli v preteklem letu. Vsak izbor pa je vedno malce subjektiven, saj mnenja o tem, kateri so najpomemb- nejši dogodki, niso vedno enotna. Vseeno pa upamo, da smo uspeli primerno predstaviti jedro programa dela, ki smo ga izvedli v letu 2014. V letu 2014 smo morali redni pro- gram dela dopolniti še z odpravo posledic februarskega žledoloma in snegoloma, ki sta po naših ocenah poškodovala 40 odstotkov sloven- skih planinskih poti zunaj visoko- gorja. To je za planinsko organizacijo predstavljajo ogromen izziv, enega izmed največjih do zdaj. Številni prostovoljci so v manj kot letu dni opravili izjemno delo in tako veliko večino poškodovanih planinskih poti usposobili za uporabo. Vodstvo Planinske zveze Slovenije se iskreno zahvaljuje vsem, ki so v letu 2014 sodelovali pri izvajanju programa dela in s tem prispevali svoj delež k razvoju in prepoznav- nosti planinstva tako doma kot v tujini.

Foto/ Credit: Manca Čujež MOUNTAINEERING ORGANIZATION IN 2014 ince 1893 to the present, the Slovenian mountaineering organization – Planinska zveza Slovenije (the Alpine Association of Slovenia) Sand its alpine clubs – has grown on the basis of volunteering into one of the largest and the most content-rich non-governmental or- ganizations in Slovenia. It has been evolving through four different social systems, and in spite of this, the mountaineering organization has been able to maintain its fundamental purpose from the beginning until now. Its mission has been to organize various activities in the mountains, maintain the mountain infrastructure (hiking trails and mountain huts), protect the mountain nature, promote safety in the mountains, and preserve mountaineering culture. Over time, these basic activities were joined by a wide range of activities which are, in one way or another, connected with the mountains. In the Yearbook of Planinska zveza Slovenije 2014 we endeavour to offer an overview of the most important events and activities which were carried out in the past year on the basis of the adopted work programme. Such selections are always a bit subjective, since the opinions on which events are the most important are not always unanimous. However, we hope that we have been able to adequately present the core of the work programme which was actualized in 2014. In addition to our regular work programme in 2014, we also had to implement the elimination of the damage caused by ice and snow in February, which according to our estimates affected 40 percent of Slovenian mountain trails below high mountain

  • Town Trail – Secession Ljubljana
    Town Trail – Secession Ljubljana ART NOUVEAU – ART RENOUVEAU 2014–2017 Walk around Art Nouveau Ljubljana, observe buildings typical of this period and answer the questions. You can start your path anywhere you like, but make sure to walk the whole path and collect as many correct answers as possible. Estimated time of the task is 90 minutes. A SECESSION LJUBLJANA The term »Secession« in Slovenia is used following the example ! of the Vienna Secession (in other European countries the terms Art Nouveau, Jugendstil, Modern Style, Liberty, etc. are also used as a name for this period), because in the Art Nouveau period, the Slovenian territory was a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and numerous Slovenian artists and architects studied in Vienna. The term » Ljubljana Secession « is a name for the neighbourhood between the old city centre and the main railway station. This neighbourhood was mostly rebuilt between the years of 1895 and 1910. It includes many important and well preserved architectural masterpieces. Secession Ljubljana is one of the most recognisable parts of the city and that part of our cultural heritage which put Ljubljana alongside the biggest Art Nouveau capital cities, such as Brussels, Vienna, Paris, Barcelona. On Easter, 14th of April 1895 at 11.17pm CET time, Ljubljana, with ! its 31,000 citizens and 1,400 buildings, was shaken by a very strong earthquake (its aftershocks were existing all the way to Vienna in Austria, Split in Croatia and Florence in Italy). About 10% of the buildings had to be demolished and all the rest were in need of a restoration.

Apart from its indispensable role in everyday life, its long-term impact on society and the environment increasingly calls for attention. Functional, quality and professional transport management determines the development path both of the region and the State. Hence the project ‘Expert guidelines for the regulation of regional public transport’ is an excellent foundation for the regulation and establishment of quality public passenger transport on the principles of sustainable mobility by 2027. At the Municipality of Ljubljana we have set out a long-term programme for public transport and designed activities needed for its implementation. What are the most important projects through which we wish to achieve greater efficiency and safety in public transport, and the use of alternative fuels, as well as encourage cycling and walking? · By closing the city centre to traffic, newly re-designed public spaces such as Prešeren Square (Prešernov trg) and the Three Bridges (Tromostovje), Ciril-Metod Square (Ciril Metodov trg), Breg, Krakovo Embankment (Krakovski nasip), Špica and Trnovo Quay (Trnovski pristan) are intended for pedestrians and cyclists.

The monster, now referred to as the Ljubljana Dragon, found its place atop the castle tower depicted on the Ljubljana coat of arms.

Nevertheless, it has history, tradition, style, arts & culture, an atmosphere that is both Central European and Mediterranean; many also add the adjectives multilingual and hospitable. Being close to many of the major sights and attractions of Slovenia, Ljubljana can also be your starting point to discover the country’s diversity. Slovenian capital Ljubljana is situated about halfway between Vienna and Venice. Its character and appearance have been shaped by diverse cultural influences and historical events. While in winter it is remarkable for its dreamy Central European character, it is the relaxed Mediterranean feel that stands out during summer. Legend about the origin of Ljubljana Legend has it that Ljubljana was founded by the Greek mythological hero Jason and his companions, the Argonauts, who had stolen the golden fleece from King Aetes and fled from him across the Black Sea and up the Danube, Sava and Ljubljanica rivers.
