Road of three sanctuaries: Sveta Gora, Marijino Celje, Stara Gora

The past intertwines with the present. The old trail to Sveta Gora in the middle became a part of the Road of three sanctuaries. From Grgar, starting at the Urška’s grave, two marked hiking trails and a cycling trail of three sanctuaries with a distinctive logo lead to the top of the hill.

Hiking trail:
Follow the signs from the church and in less than an hour you’ll reach the viewing point in the south-eastern part of Sveta Gora. What a magnificent view!

It encompasses the Julian Alps and the sea, the wooded plateaus and green valleys. Right below us (350 meters lower), you can see Grgar with a white church tower in the middle and a field that changes its image as a colourful carpet through the seasons. At the outskirts of this basin, the settlements Bitež, Fobca and Zagorje are located. Not far away from here, the Sveta Gora church invites the hikers to visit it.
