Rovinj is known as “the postcard town” where, among other things, you can explore the sunny coast of Count Hüterott. It will not let you down, but quite the contrary.

Although it is quite challenging due to its length (30 km), this trail offers breath-taking vistas - leading from the old town centre of Rovinj in the direction of Rovinjsko Selo, passing alongside the Church of St. Thomas from the 8th/9th century and numerous stone shelters called kažuni, then turning back to Punta Corrente, which was declared a park forest in 1961.

5. The Black Point and Orlić
The Black Point is the most prominent part of the east coast of Istria, with a lighthouse built in 1873. The trail is 10 km long and a part of it passes by the lighthouse, along a rocky shore and an oak forest. But what makes it special and almost surreal is the view of the Kvarner Bay from Orlić, the highest peak, 470 metres above sea level. The village of Skitača tells its own unique story. It has 40 houses, most of which are for rent, and only one permanent inhabitant.
