We took tram 14 from the main square then the bus to the top for about £3 return. If I was doing it again I would hire a car and spend the full day. There are loads of walks, hotels, bars etc for a few beers if you take the bus. Most places sell food as well. It is great for bikes or walks with the dog and the scenery amazing. An excellent day out.
if you are the extreme type than this is too easy for you. On weekends the trail leading up to the summit becomes one of the favorite past time of the people of Zagreb. If youre lookin for a break from the city, head out to the trail, at the top you will find great apple strudel. To start take the tram from Mihalijavac station to dolje, the final station and just follow the markings.
This was a nice one day trip. There are many nice spots to visit: some small churches, green views, eating places etc. We highly recommended it.
always a pleasant temperature in the summer is no problem they can spend all day, excellent homemade food when it comes to the top
Few of one million in the immediate vicinity has this big hill that hosts the competition for svijestski Cup skiing. Too bad more locals do not use this hill for sports and recreation
Everything that we saw and feel visiting Medvednica mountain and Sljeme was to remember the experience the whole life. Sightseing from Sljeme to Zagreb, reastaurant Tomislavov dom and especially Sljemenska gibanica.
I decided to walk up, which took quite a while, so if you are up for a challenge and have good company and time, then can be a nice walk up. Lovely trees on the way up, especially auburn during autumn. Definitely worth the visit... Including a church on the way up. Not much else on the way up.
Hello! I went alone and by foot and it was excellent. The crew from Wanderer travel explained to me how to get there and i am really not sorry for not taking the public transport( 20 min tram ride from the main square and then 2-3 hours by foot), or 40 min with public transport. Do not miss this, especially the food up there(so cheap and so good)
It's a great place for all of these things and it's very easy to get to from the center of Zagreb (easier still from 2017 when the new cable car is expected to go into operation). If you like art, history, ruins and vistas you can go to Medvedgrad castle. You can hike or bike for days on clearly marked hiking and biking trails, sample local delicacies at many mountain huts/hotels/restaurants, ski during winter, barbecue on nice days. It's good for families, couples, friends or just going solo. The view from the very top is gorgeous and on a clear day you can easily see the Alps very far into Slovenia and even the mountains close to Hungary and towards the Adriatic coast.
There are not many cities that can boast to be right next to the town of mountains, just with it boasts Zagreb. The mountain is preserved and citizens is used for excursions and walking
