Samobor – Žumberak

Samoborsko Gorje is the perfect destination for a day escape from Zagreb – close enough for an easy trip, yet peaceful and spacious enough to leave the city’s hustle and bustle behind. Unlike the popular Medvednica Nature Park and Sljeme, which can attract large numbers of visitors on weekends, here you will find quieter trails, a more relaxed pace and a truly authentic sense of exploration.

Rolling hills, dense forests, meadows, traditional villages, scenic viewpoints, waterfalls, wine roads and local gastronomy make this region truly special.

Thanks to its network of gravel roads, forest tracks and panoramic routes, Žumberak and Samoborsko Gorje are ideal for electric mountain biking, exploring hidden corners of nature and enjoying authentic wine and gastronomic experiences far from the tourist crowds.

And after a day spent outdoors, enjoying fresh air and a relaxing ride, local specialties such as the famous Samobor cream cake (kremšnita), bermet wine and other regional delicacies taste even better.
