Tourist attractions

Grahovo was the chosen location for the first full length Slovenian movie. The movie, Na Svoji Zemlji (On our own land), was filmed in 1946, just after the 2nd WW in Grahovo and in the neighboring village of Koritnica.
This film tells the story of the partisans struggle against the occupying forces and how the villagers helped the partisans.
Today there is a walking trail in and around the two villages which shows you the location of the different scenes. It is interesting to see how little some of the locations have changed since 1946.
This area is steeped in history from the 1st and 2nd World Wars, there are many local walks where you can explore bunkers and visit monuments.
You can visit Slovenia's widest tree in the nearby village of Rut.
