Lindens were planted by the owners of both castles so they could enjoy their summer carriage rides in the shade of the trees. The section between Planina and Martinjak was restored in the first half of the 20th century. Another avenue running through the park is the linden one between Begunje and Cerknica, planted in the first half of the 20th century. In addition to the two, there is also an avenue of pear trees between Lispenj and Gorenje Jezero.
