Perceive Zagreb Like a Local - Medvednica Nature Park Hiking

About this activity

Explore the side of Zagreb most visitors often overlook in a company of a private guide. Medvednica is a mountain that guards the city of Zagreb to the north located just 30 minutes from the city centre.

Medvednica is a famous weekend getaway where locals go to enjoy fresh air and beautiful views of the city. We will follow their steps to see a unique different side of Croatian capital city.

Leaving the city noise behind we will take one of many hiking trails into the dense forests of beech, oak and chestnut to reach its highest peak Sljeme at 1033 m. We will have a stunning view of Zagreb to the one side and Zagorje region to the other. Best way to be a local on Sljeme is by eating a traditional lunch of warm bean soup with sausages in the hut at the top.
