The valley of Kamniška Bistrica is a glacial alpine valley on the southern side of the KamnikSavinja Alps. With its location near Ljubljana and other, somewhat smaller nearby towns, it represents a very popular destination to many mountaineers. The unspoiled nature with a large number of natural sights and the wide choice of paths, from valley destinations up to the highlands and mountains, are a source of additional motivation for a visit. The purpose of the final seminar paper is to present the main characteristics of the mountaineering visitation of the Kamniška Bistrica valley. A survey of mountaineers was conducted in the area. The results showed that the majority of mountaineers come from the wider area of settlements between Ljubljana and the valley of Kamniška Bistrica. The most popular destinations among the interviewees are Kamniško sedlo and Grintovec, the highest peak of the Kamnik-Savinja Alps. Individual mountaineers choose to visit the valley mainly because of its good accessibility.
