The publication publishes excursions of the Ljubljana Geographical Society, carried out between April 2015 and May 2019. If we break down individual contributions according to their main ...characteristics, we can point out some interesting findings. Let us first mention their concentration in the western part of Slovenia. Southwestern Slovenia stands out as an area of strong regional dominance, with the participants taking advantage of two excursions to the wide-open state border with Italy, created by Slovenia's entry into the Schengen area. The variety of excursions according to the method of implementation is also noticeable. As a rule, classic bus transport is enriched by walking. Completely different logistics were needed to carry out a cycling excursion through the Slovenian and Italian Karst. There is a continuing tendency for geographical knowledge to increasingly complement the content of other disciplines, especially archeology and ethnology, which certainly enriches excursions due to a different view of the landscape and emphases that geographers usually ignore or do not know much about.
The 7th guidebook contains six excursions of the Ljubljana Geographical Society which took place between September 2012 and November 2014. An additional excursion of the Geomorphological Association ...of Slovenia from March 2012 was added. Every excursion is thematically unique, thus mutually complementing all of them to different collage and displaying the broad geographical horizon.The first excursion guides us to the plateau of Banjšice and to Čepovanski dol, the second introduces us with different landscape, historical and artistic elements of the valley of Selška Sora, the third takes us to the east of the country to Obsotelje and Kozjansko, the fourth deals with the valley of Dravinja River and the learning polygons, the fifth deals in details with Goričko~the least developed Slovenian region, the sixth takes us through the history of arms in the Park of the military history in Pivka, the last exursion gives us detailed introduction with the less known karstic features on flysch and the measurement of the erosion in flyschy Slovene Grey Istria.
