D info Info

Due to the mountainous landscape, we recommend choosing accommodations in coastal towns such as Rijeka, Matulji, Opatija, Ičići, Lovran, Medveja, Donji Kraj or Mošćenice.  If you opt for accommodations closer to the national park, please note that the roads can be quite winding with sharp turns. If you're traveling by bus, the journey to the event destination might take longer, and navigating the roads could be more challenging for larger vehicles.
