Along the way, enjoy food and a glass of wine, and a tavern lunch, included in the tour price.

Escape the busy city and hike into the beautiful Croatian countryside on this private 1-day Mèdvednica Mountain walking tour from Zagreb. Head deep into the Mèdvednica Nature Park with a private guide. Follow winding trails through the dense forest, and keep watch in the undergrowth for timid deer and rabbits. Pass trickling streams running down the hillside, and savor lunch alongside fine views from the top of the trail. During this sometimes slightly challenging hike, enjoy a relaxing day away from the hustle and bustle of Zagreb.

Trade Zagreb’s bustle for a day in nature on this seamless, private tour of Zumberak National Park and Samobor village.
