The purpose of the master's thesis was to design a high school cross-curricular Geography and Slovene Language excursion for secondary school to the Submediterranean regions of Slovenia. The excursion represents one of the possible ways of implementing lessons outside the classroom and enables students to learn through experience. We analysed the Slovene and Geography curriculums for high school and found that they offer many opportunities for cross-curricular integration. Among the goals stated in the two curricula, we found many topics that could be included in the preparation of a cross-curricular excursion. The preparation of the cross-curricular excursion includes an organisational part and a theoretical part. The central part of the preparation is the lesson plan, which is the core of the excursion, and takes place at twenty-eight points while covering a wide range of different geographical and literary topics. We have also prepared materials and handouts to enable and support the excursion. We have produced a student handout and a map, as well as materials that enable the organisers of the excursion to present and deliver the content offered by the chosen itinerary of the cross-curricular excursion in to the Submediterranean regions of Slovenia.
