In the winter, when the Ljubljana Basin contains much fog and low clouds, outings to Mount Krim are the nearest point offering sunshine. Mount Krim is also referred to as Ljubljana's weatherman () because a cloud obscuring the top of the mountain is said to portend bad weather for the surrounding region. The summit offers a good view of the Ljubljana Marsh, the Karawanks, the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, and part of the Julian Alps.
