Get to know the beauty of the “green Istria”, hidden from the busy everday life, in its valleys surrounded by forests and hills! The legend says that giants used to live in the valley of the Mirna River a long time ago and they were so big that they passed the tools to each other’s hands and thus built many towns, such as Grožnjan and Oprtalj. We will end our walk here, in the beautiful surroundings of the local tavern, where we will taste autochthonous Istrian delicacies!
