Glamping Green Istria

There’s much pleasure to be had in simply pootling around locally, either on foot or hiring bikes from the site to pedal along nearby lanes, seeking out scenic spots like viewpoints and waterfalls and finding small wineries to visit along the way. If you’ve got a particular foodie streak, local outfits can sort you with food tours and truffle-hunting outings in season. With the coast so close by, you should certainly get down there as well – perhaps to Žusterna Beach or for a wander around the seaside city of Koper, strolling through the medieval streets, looking out for the Praetorian Palace, and climbing up the bell tower by the Gothic Cathedral of the Assumption for some fabulous views. Both are 20 minutes’ drive away. Elsewhere along the coast, the towns of Izola (25 minutes' drive) and Piran (40 minutes) are worth a stop, and the traditional saltpans of Sečovlje Salina Nature Park (35 minutes) make for an interesting visit too.
