Best 360° view I have ever seen!
Nice 1hr bike ride/3hr walk from Novo Jahrse (30min on bus 7 from Ljubljana)
I recommend a swim by the Sava river

The Rašica hill (you read it like 'RASHIZA') with its 641 meters of height (Ljubljana is at 295 meters) is a little bit smaller than the 'next door' Mount Saint Mary or better yet Šmarna gora hill (669 meters, distinctive because of its church Cerkev Rožnovenske Matere Božje) but it has a FAR better view. In the photos that I have provided (winter season view) you can see just 180 degrees, basically just the mountains which are the last part of the Alps or better yet last part of the long Alp chain. On a clear day you can see about a third of Slovenia. To the south the sky looks much more bright as the sunshine hits the Adriatic sea which lays about 40 to 50 kilometers behind the hills that you can see from the viewing tower on top of Rašica. The hill Javornik (over 1000 meters high) is a reference point and it lays near the town of Ajdovščina. To the south is also Krim hill (Mount Krim) or Crimea hill if translated. The view from Rašica provides so much that it would be hard to describe everything, but let me just say: on a clear day it has a FANTASTIC view! PS: the photos are from early 2000's (one of them shows the highest mountain of not just Slovenia but former Yugoslavia as well - Triglav, 2864 meters)

Razgledni Stolp – Forest bathing near Ljubljana.
The peak of Staneta Kosca stands eyeball to eyeball with
Šmarna Gora. The geological stand-off between these two hills is one for the books!
Yet, when you’re looking for a peaceful location near Ljubljana for a day of forest bathing, this forested hillside is the right place. Plenty of people stroll through this forest on holidays and weekends, but they’re more dispersed throughout the forest, making it feel more peaceful.
This observation tower (“razgledni stolp” in Slovene) sits above a small village called Rašica and is about 17m tall. Don’t worry; there are stairs, so you don’t have to use superpowers to reach the top—no need to reveal your secret identity. Once you’ve conquered those last few steps, you can enjoy a fantastic view of Ljubljana, the Kamnik–Savinja Alps, and central Slovenia.
If you’ve parked your car here: 46°08'00.0"N 14°30'13.2"E
(Google maps coordinates: 46.133343, 14.503664), you should walk towards the houses a bit down the street. The first signposts will appear on your left and guide you into the forest. If you’re fortunate enough, you’ll be able to observe the inspiring art of careless Balkan parking, a talent most Slovenes master as soon as they get their driving license!
There are several well-marked pathways (red arrows and red and white circles painted on trees and rocks), but I suggest following the Vrh Staneta Kosca signs. These will take you to the observation tower and the nearby inn that serves typical Slovene dishes (Tip: try their Štrukli!) and well-deserved coffee at reasonable prices.

Nice view of the surrounding areas. Ljubljana, neighboring Šmartno and Šmarna gora hill, Trzin, Medvode, and surrounding mountains, including Triglav.

Very local place and nice view from a bit shaky top of the tower. Almost no foreigners here.
