Učka Nature Park

Mount Učka rises along the coast of the northern Adriatic. The closeness of the sea has resulted in a specific climate and lush forest vegetation, with many rare and protected plant and animal species. The peak of Vojak features a stone tower, which has become a recognisable landmark. From the top of the tower, one can admire a magnificent view of Rijeka, the Kvarner islands, Istria, Platak and beyond. This 360° panorama is truly breathtaking!

Mount Učka offers a variety of sports and recreational activities, such as hiking, free climbing, mountain biking and hang gliding, and is a venue for various sporting competitions and races. Here, you’ll find a variety of well-tended hiking, cycling, educational and walking trails. The programme for visitors includes different workshops and programmes for children, as well as guided tours. 

The Slap trail leads to a waterfall that springs up from several places inside the canyon. The trail will take you through a resting place, sweet chestnut forest, oak forest, and ancient terraced gardens where in the past people used to cultivate land. 

The Vela Draga trail leads through a magnificent canyon that is protected as a geomorphological monument of extraordinary importance. Along the trail, you’ll find interpretation boards that explain some of the local phenomena in four languages. 

Every day from 9 am to 5 pm
