Here, on just 20,273 square kilometers, snow-covered mountains, a sea coast bathing in the Mediterranean sum, beautiful karst caves and thermal springs, narrow whitewater canyons and wide slow moving rivers, high mountain lakes and lakes that disappear mysteriously underground at the start of summer, ancient villages and medieval cities, the antique castles and modern entertainment, countless vineyards with top quality wines, and the only primeval forest in Europe. Here in this small and easily covered area, where hundreds of bird migrating south stop briefly and where dozens of unique indigenous plants find their home, more diverse experiences await you all year round than can be found anywhere else.

You can breakfast with herdsmen on a mountain meadow and end your evening in a richly stocked wine cellar at the edge of the Pannonian plain.
