Activity description

Embark on an unforgettable journey through the wilderness of the Nature Park, starting right from the heart of Zagreb. Experience the perfect blend of urban and natural landscapes as you embark on a thrilling hike that promises stunning vistas, medieval history, and a taste of local cuisine.

Begin your adventure from Zagreb’s Main Square, where your knowledgeable guide will provide an overview of the day's itinerary. Hop aboard the tram and journey through the city streets to reach the cable car station, where you will ascend to the summit of the mountain. Marvel at the breathtaking 360-degree views from the TV tower before commencing your hike.

The eight-kilometer hike descends through the enchanting forest trails, offering a moderate to challenging trek for adventurers of all levels. Divided into two parts, the first leg of the journey leads to the Medieval Castle, where you will delve into the rich history of the mountain and take a moment to unwind. The second part of the hike guides you back through the Nature Park’s Forest, culminating in the heart of the city.

Conclude your hike with a visit to a traditional restaurant, where you will indulge in a three-course meal featuring local delicacies. Immerse yourself in the ambiance of a bygone era as you savor the authentic flavors of Zagreb cuisine. After your culinary experience, your guide will accompany you on the mountain bus and tram for a seamless return journey to the Main Square.
