Štrigova is locatedat the very north tip of Croatia - hilly, bathed in the sun, intertwined with numerous vineyards and hard-working residents - all these characteristics adorn this region of Međimurje. Although it is located near the larger town of Čakovec, it is a true oasis for lovers of rural areas.
However, don't think that you could ever be bored here. The wine road, which traces its roots back to Roman times, is a real attraction in this region, where the varieties of quality white wines are especially popular.
Wine Road - An Unmissable Stop
The Međimurje wine road proudly represents the best of the viticulture of this region. It is a home to several dozen winemakers who proudly show off their wine cellars to tourists who can taste and buy the offered wines. On the way, you will find restaurants that offer delicious local dishes, and in specific locations, you can make a reservation with many wine cellars where you can taste top wines. Varieties of white wines are most represented in this northern location, but you will also find some red and rosé wines.
The Wine Road is wholly adapted for tourists so that you will find marked routes, walkways, and sections suitable for cycling without any problems. We believe it is a real experience to cycle through this area and observe the luxurious vineyards. For those looking for fun and festivities, we have great news! During certain months, this region offers different festivals. Be sure to review the offer for the month you are interested in, and – let the fun begin!
