Discover the Secrets of the Piran Countryside

Just a few minutes’ drive from the coastal towns, you will step into a world of old Istrian villages, surrounded by olive groves, vineyards, and orchards. Everything is wrapped in tranquility and simplicity – ancient stone houses, kind-hearted elderly women eager to share stories of the good old days, and farmers diligently working the steep slopes. One might think that time has stood still here.

Explore the rolling hills, stop for a local feast featuring fresh Mediterranean delights, listen to the gentle whispers of the breeze, or lose yourself in the picturesque landscape for a few hours.
