Looking for some entertainment away from Euro 2016? Help is at hand on June 11, 2016 with the Ludbreg Wine Marathon.
The more I travel around Croatia, the more I am impressed. Innovative ideas that rarely make the headlines are all over this country. People with great ideas to improve their communities and tourism in general.
One of the places that left a particular mark of appreciation on me recently was Ludbreg, a rather sensational little town tucked away in Varazdin County (you can read my trip impressions here - incredible place). One of the things that struck me on that day was the pride that the local winemakers had taken in both their wineries and their attempts to create a wine road and wine tourism. Here, in little Ludbreg, the town will celebrate six years of its wine road tomorrow, at a time when all Dalmatia is yet to open an official one.
And what better way to celebrate a birthday than with a wine marathon?
A special day tomorrow in Ludbreg if you are in the area as the second Ludbreg Wine Marathon will take place, a chance to sample the considerable delights of the local winemakers, and all for just 50 kuna. Never run a marathon before? This is the perfect place to start! And your 50 kuna entrance fee goes a long way - entrance into six wineries (your glass is provided) where you will be able to sample three wines in each establishment.
And if that is not enough, the party then continues into the night at the statue of St. Vinka. It starts at 12:00 and ends at 19:00, with the party to follow. Book your place by Facebook on the event page, or call Sanja; 098 177 0719 ili Monika; 099 507 7381. It promises to be a great day.
