    LIPNICA CASTLE. The castle hill can be scaled — on foot or by bike — from the villages of Lancovo or Zgornja Lipnica. Wonderful vistas open up from the site: across the green hills, Bled, and the Julian Alps with Mt. Triglav. On the other side, you can take in the sumptuous views of the green forests of the Lipnica Valley and Jelovica Plateau. The first records of the castle date back to the first half of the thirteenth century. At that time, it was in the possession of the Ortenburgs, the most powerful noble family in Upper Carniola and Carinthia.
