One kilometer from the center of the village, next to the Rakitna - Cerknica road, there is an artificial lake in a picturesque natural environment. In summer, you can go swimming in addition to swimming, and in winter you can skate or play hockey on it. Fishing for carp, grass carp, perch, redeye and redfin is possible in the lake. There is a large parking lot by the lake. From here it is the starting point for a popular circular walking route along an asphalted road through a settlement of holiday homes, across meadows, past the Mladinski climatic spa and the center of the village (40 min). It is also the starting point for the interesting Forest and Archeological Learning Path and the Path of the Famous Rakica Mast. Right next to the lake is Hotel Rakitna with a restaurant, pizzeria, rooms, apartments, wellness, fitness and seminar room. Behind Lake Pr'Martin, they serve a variety of burgers and horse dishes on the weekends in their American air-stream trailer and open terrace. There is also a replica of the Raki mast with information boards, which already in 1894 carried the fame of the mighty Raki forests all the way to Trieste.

Climb from Podpeč to Lake Rakitna

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

It is a really nice climb with a steady grade varying from 5 to 10 %. Be careful because this road is also very popular among motor bikers and it can get quite annoying with them racing up and down the hill.

Ascent to Turjak Castle

Highlight (Segment) • Castle

Serpentines lead to the castle, the trees become lighter with every curve, the sky gets closer, until you finally reach the beautiful Turjak Castle. From here a wonderful view of the surrounding hills, which are waiting to be conquered on the next trip.
