Right on Zagreb's doorstep lies a perfect destination for easygoing road trips - Zagorje.

A land of small colorful villages squirreled between green rolling hills, vast vineyards, and gorgeous medieval castles seems to be plucked out of a fairytale. From the finest gourmet tastings to mineral-spring spa resorts, the Zagorje region is ideal for hedonists, history lovers, and culture enthusiasts.

What to do in Zagorje?

🍀 Journey back to 1334 in Trakošćan Castle, whose neo-Gothic 19th-century exterior hides far older internal structures.

🍀 With its pentagonal towers and turrets, atmospheric interiors, and bucolic landscapes, the hilltop castle of Veliki Tabor offers a trip to the 16th century.

🍀 Kumrovec Staro Selo is an open-air ethnographic museum transporting you to a 19th-century village with 40 restored houses and barns made of pressed earth and wood.
