Although Trzin is the second smallest municipality in Slovenia, with an area of just 859.5 hectares, it is among the richest, most developed and economically important areas of the country. Thanks to its advantageous position, Trzin is one of the settlements that has developed most in recent years, and whose population has grown most rapidly. In the space of a few decades it has changed from a sleepy suburban village with around 700 inhabitants into a lively, bustling settlement with a population of several thousand and rich enterprise and crafts activities. On the social side, its clubs and societies organise numerous cultural, sports and other events which also attract visitors from other parts. Thanks to the pleasant, unspoilt countryside that surrounds it, Trzin can be a good starting point for excursions to popular destinations such as Dobeno and Rašica.
