Medvednica (“The Bear Mountain“), which embraces Croatia’s capital city Zagreb, is a unique example of an almost fully preserved natural environment just outside a large city. The mountain is covered by dense forests of beech, oak, and chestnut. Our base for this multi-activity holiday is in Medvednica Nature Park, close to the peak. We will explore the region cycling / biking, walking / hiking and canoeing / kayaking, visit Plitvice Lakes National Park and explore the beautiful Mreznica River.

Apartment hotel Snježna kraljica (“Snow queen”) is situated close to the peak of Mount Medvednica, in the very vicinity of the ski slopes. It has seventeen modern apartments with open fireplaces for romantic atmosphere. The restaurant offers old, nearly forgotten home-made Croatian specialities in its mountaineering atmosphere. Snježna kraljica also offers extra facilities for relaxation: fitness, sauna and whirlpool-jacuzzi.
