Vrh pri Fari: Archery, bread-making and cultural heritage

Plan your trip to Vrh pri Fari around the activities at Lukčeva domačija and local cultural attractions. Archery, a medieval-themed escape game, bread-making and guided tastings offer a range of ways to spend your time in the area. Check current availability before setting your travel dates.

Archery, an escape game and bread-making

The small archery school at Lukčeva domačija teaches visitors how to handle the equipment and the basic shooting technique. A licensed archery instructor provides guidance; participants can also shoot at a target from a short distance. If archery is a firm part of your stay, check the current booking details, as they may change.

Two further activities differ both in subject and duration. “Skrivnost legende” is a medieval-themed escape game conceived and developed at Lukčeva domačija. It is suitable for groups of 2 to 5 people and families, and lasts 60 minutes. The bread-making workshop with puppet animation is suitable for all ages and lasts two hours; participants knead dough and shape small baked goods in various forms. The escape game is therefore an hour shorter than the baking workshop; the two activities also contrast a game set in a historical context with hands-on dough work.

Guided programmes and apple processing

Lukčeva domačija offers shorter and full-day guided programmes at its location at Vrh pri Fari 1; booking is required. The programmes include tastings of local delicacies. If you would like to plan a tasting, arrange it in advance.

The apple-pressing service is seasonal. Check its availability in advance if you would like to include it in your travel plans. The service includes washing and grinding customers’ apples, pressing the juice, mechanical filtering and controlled pasteurisation. The juice is then bottled or filled into bag-in-box packaging. Unlike a tasting, this service involves processing your own apples; the two activities therefore suit different interests.

Cultural heritage and directions

Cultural heritage also offers a local point of interest. The Church of St Nicholas in Vrh pri Fari is listed in a cultural heritage register; a level 2 area-based protection status is also assigned to it. The Vrh archaeological site is listed in an archaeological heritage register. These are two distinct points of interest: a church and an archaeological site.
