Due to its rich natural and cultural heritage, the Ljubljana Marsh Nature Park has a great potential to become a sustainable tourist destination on the outskirts of the Slovenian capital Ljubljana. The current infrastructure for visiting the park is lacking and unsuitable. In this master’s thesis we therefore suggest a network of entry points, which will enable the visitors an easier visit to the park. We formed criteria and guidelines to implement and equip the entry points. Our main guideline was sustainable development and sustainable mobility. A great potential lies in the Ljubljanica River, which was once sailable, but is currently closed for sailing between Vrhnika and Ljubljana. We prepared suggestions for one-day trips for different types of visitors. Furthermore, we showed the intermodality of different sustainable means of transport. We presented a suggestion of a pilot example for a new regime in the area of the natural assets of Jezero pri Podpeči, which deals with the problem of lacking infrastructure during the summer rush-hours. We suggested a new parking arrangement, children’s playground, toilets and a lookout spot with information boards and the necessary sitting equipment.
