Through a Landscape of Rolling Hills

The circular cycling route “Through a Landscape of Rolling Hills” takes you through the northwesternmost part of Krapina-Zagorje County. The ride features a mix of climbs and descents, passes through valleys and opens up views of the Sutla River and surrounding mountains, with vistas reaching all the way to the Alps on clear days. The hilly landscape demands a steady pace, but continually rewards with views of vineyards and villages along the way. Along the route, you uncover stories of over 140 years of glassmaking tradition in Hum na Sutli, the centuries-old custom of the Easter Holster of Kostel, and Kostelgrad, a medieval fortress with panoramic views that testify to its historical significance. The route also passes by the vineyards of Bodren Winery, known for its premium wines, and the ride concludes with an opportunity to rest and enjoy the authentic landscape.
