The Kamniška Bistrica River is the most urbanized in the country, mostly due to the numerous mill streams that punctuated it throughout history. This has led to a decrease in the natural environment. What seemed like a frustrating but inevitable future of continued urbanization has seen a reverse however, with initiatives being made to protect the environment and restore the river channel. By connecting the three municipal capitals that share the river (Kamnik, Domžale and Dol pri Ljubljani), the initiative would create a river park spanning the entire 33km length of the river, providing flood protection and improving the ecology of the riverside environment. The other neighboring municipalities would also be involved, creating a shared single system of recreational and ecological tourism, using educational trails along bike and walking paths.

As we stand right now, 21km worth of trails are interposed with benches and picnic tables providing the most relaxing of afternoon walks (or rides) for all the family. The confluence of the Kamniška Bistrica and the Rača rivers at the beginning of the trails add another element of beauty, accentuated by linden trees all around.
