Near Golo Brdo in Brda lies an unusual site of the auricula primrose (Primula auricula), a mountain flower growing here at a very low altitude, in steep limestone cliffs above the Idrija River. According to the official Brda description, it is best seen in the first days of April, when it blooms yellow and fragrant.
This is a small but remarkable natural feature: the species has survived in the shaded part of the cliffs, and the plant can be admired from a small bridge over the pool on the road toward Britof. Brda highlights the rarity of such cliffs in the region and the unusual low-altitude habitat.
The site is best treated as a short stop on a Brda day trip. Early spring is the key season, especially the beginning of April. As this is a natural spot by a village road, the visit should be calm and respectful, staying on the accessible viewpoint.
It is also worth seeing Golo Brdo village and the medieval Church of Virgin Mary on the Lake above the village, both featured by the municipality.
