The panoramic point offers a beautiful view of the mountains above Podkoren and Kranjska Gora.

The viewpoint in Podkoren is an attractive point for visitors who want to enjoy spectacular views of the surrounding nature. 

The “Karenška rida” viewpoint is situated on an elevated position near the village of Podkoren, which provides extensive views of the surrounding landscape. The viewing platform offers a wonderful panoramic view of the Julian Alps, including the ski slope where the Men's Alpine Skiing World Cup - the Vitranc Cup - takes place. The view also extends to the surrounding valleys, forests and pastures, offering a picturesque and peaceful setting for visitors.

The platform is equipped with information boards to inform visitors about the history, geography and natural attractions of the area. Benches are placed on the platform where visitors can relax and enjoy the view.

The Podkoren viewpoint is therefore an excellent starting point for exploring the natural beauty of the area and enjoying the peace and tranquility of the Alpine landscape.
