Experience the charms of Portorož with stunning views of the Croatian coast from Beli Križ. We will discover the cultural landscape of Šentjan and Zviška, where the panoramic view will take us to the Strunjan Valley. We will indulge in a tasting of the best local Istrian wines, such as Refosco and Malvasia. We will test our senses by guessing the ingredients of the traditional Istrian "mineštra". We will complete the journey with a peaceful walk and enjoy the charm of the Slovenian Istria.
First, we enjoy a soothing walk of Portorož by the sea, then we climb between the gardens to Beli Križ, from where we turn to Šentjane. The proximity of the sea and the view far to the Croatian coast gives this route a special charm.
We embrace Šentjane and from the top, we observe the diverse cultural landscapes that surround us. From the top, we admire the lively Portorož beach on one side and the calm green Strunjan valley on the other. The ascent rewards us with special views.
We stop for a wine break at the Bubola farm, in a small family wine cellar and with our eyes covered we try local Istrian wines, from which the most famous are refošk and malvasia. According to the taste and smell, we can determine which wine we like best. In the Boem restaurant on Beli Križ, with a beautiful view of Fiesa, another guess of smells and tastes follows. This time the ingredients of a typical Istrian minestrone - "bobiči". The one who discovers all the ingredients is given a prize for the next experience. We return to Portorož along the street "Stara cesta".
