Zagorje is located near the capital and it is an area brimming with attractions and curiosities. If you want to spend your vacation discovering and exploring this area, here are a few ways you can do it while having great fun.

If you are staying in Zagreb, you can head to Oroslavje for a one-day trip, where there is a Science Park with scientific and educational content for all ages.

If you want to walk among the canopy, go in the direction of Zelenjak to experience the Path through the Canopy Zelenjak. It will take you through an interesting interpretation of the biodiversity of the protected landscape. Once you find yourself in there, it will become clear to you why this is the very place where Antun Mihanović wrote the verses for the Croatian anthem. So don't forget to look for the “Our Beautiful Homeland” Monument to the Croatian anthem in the beauty of the inspiring nature.

If you are looking for adrenaline or a bird's eye view of Zagorje, consider a balloon flight that can be arranged at the Zagreb Balloon Club or a helicopter flight waiting for you at the Heli Center in Krapinske Toplice. Both activities can be learned with the help of professional staff, so enjoy the flight and the view of Zagorje.

Finally, Medvednica has a special story with a thousand faces, and Horvatove stube (Horvat's stairs) are a special way to explore it. They were made by the Croatian mountaineer Vladimir Horvat with his own hand, and they are completely blended into nature. 500 steps, between which there is a 117 meter height difference, still lead hikers from the Hunjka meadow to the Medvednica cave.

The attractions of this area are numerous, so go on a trip and explore Zagorje.
