Let’s share our memorable experiences!

Throughout the centuries, the stone and the skill of dry-stone wall building have created the unique cultural landscape of the Karst. Take a walk along the #trailofnineponds, #pliskatrail, #karstlivingmuseum and admire the small stone houses and dry-stone walls encircling the meadows in the karst nature. If you’re not fond of walking, listen to Pepa’s story in Pepa’s Karst Garden.
