Green oasis of Europe

Gorski Kotar is the green oasis of Europe and Croatia, located at the crossroads of the
Mediterranean, the inland Pannonian Basin and the gorgeous mountainous area. The mountainous
region covered by centuries-old tall forests can be described as the Croatian Alps, located a short 20-
minute drive from the coast.
Winters are mostly harsh and long, and well-suited for enjoying the winter wonderland and winter
sports. Spring, that comes late to Gorski Kotar, offers an amazing sight of nature awakening from its
long winter slumber, something that you would not want to miss.
The pleasant daily temperatures and cool nights during the summer will ensure you get a good
night’s sleep and shelter from the summer heat. The autumn fruit picking will enchant you with a
colour palette that will fully bring out the hedonist in you. The picturesque rural settlements act as
mountain climatic resorts where you will benefit from the excellent therapeutic effects of mountain
air that will help you relax and regenerate.
If you are looking for almost meditative tranquillity or an activity holiday, an unforgettable adventure
or cosy winter nights by the fireplace, you needn’t look any further. If you want to explore a rich
cultural heritage and an authentic natural landscape, Gorski Kotar is sure to amaze you. Its rich
tradition and cultural values run through every facet of this destination, from gastronomy to the
magnificent architecture provided by nature.
