Project Description
Wine Spritzer in Svecina
EASY
Cycle Up and Down through the vineyards in a day full of joy. Taste some of the best Slovene Styrian wines on the Svecina wine route. Countryside at the border with Austria offers attractive contrasts, from steep ascends on different surfaces and short, joyful descents. Main highlight is 800 year old traditional wine village Svecina with a road in the shape of a heart – Svecinski srcek. We climb to the top of this road and observe “Svecinski srček” and magnificent countryside with the glass of Striyan white wine in our hand. On the way down, on every turn we find offers of local winemakers and make our day even more perfect.
