4 places in Istria that will wow you with their beautiful nature
Istria offers many places that will leave you breathless with their natural beauty. In this blog, we will introduce you to 4 places worth visiting.
Pazinčica Valley
The Pazin Stream, better known as Pazinčica, is home to Zarečki krov, a beautiful area for cyclists, walkers and nature lovers. Here you can dine in the outdoors with a beautiful view of the waterfalls flowing from its roof, which makes this place so very special. If you are brave enough, you can also swim there.
Sopot Waterfall
The Sopot Waterfall is a beautiful waterfall in Istria that we recommend you visit. It is special because it looks like something from a movie scene – the crystal-clear water flowing under the bridge and into the turquoise lake makes it magical. The Sopot Waterfall is part of two hiking trails – Sv. Šimun (Istria trails 701) and the trails of Sv. Roko (Istria trails 702) – a perfect opportunity for a full-day excursion. Note: be sure to ask the locals if it has rained recently; if there wasn’t any rain, there will be no water, and therefore no magical waterfall!
Butoniga Waterfalls
Another hidden place that preserves a natural paradise – the beautiful waterfalls. Since the trail is not yet marked or secured, it is not recommended for people who are not experienced in hiking, do not have the appropriate equipment and are not in good physical condition.
Benkovski Waterfall
Another beautiful waterfall in central Istria that you should definitely visit after the rainy season.
