CROATIA
Risnjak National Park/Risjnak National Park Tips: It’s no problem to buy good and suitable walking
maps in the region we walked in. However, on the route the marks have
sometimes disappeared. You have to make your own choice with the risk of
losing your way. Nevertheless, this route leads you through splendid
landscapes. At Easter no tourist to see! Perhaps all going to the coast, to
the Mediterranean. But see this part of the country! On the route you can sleep and eat in the villages
and cities. New highways in Slovenia offers you easy and quick
access to Croatia. Easter
2002: a round-walk along the borders of the National Park Risjnak. The NP is
a part of the Gorski Gotar. People say that brown bear and lynx still live
here, but we didn't see them. What we saw was: luxurious silence, slanting
hills, great views along the Kupa-river (on the other site Slovenia), a
horizon with the Risjnak-mountain (1528 m.) and all the results of freely
growing of the forests and vegetation. Height during the route: 600-1100 m. |

had a great time at the start and
finish of our walk. Wild boar and home made wine (and stronger). What do you
want more? ( perhaps frog’s legs, people breed them here….)
