If you come to Istria, you will see for yourself why they refer to Istria as the "Tuscany of Croatia." The interior part of the region with its characteristic stone architecture and small towns situated on hills create a peaceful and relaxing environment. The interior part of green Istria will greet you with a rich agrotourism offer and untouched nature.

Green Istria is the right place for all those who have enough of city life, crowds, who wish to return to nature, to its peacefulness and tranquility. The inland Istria is showing a growing number of agro tourism points (today reaching the number of around 200). The accommodation units are constructed in typically Istrian tradition, usually called Istrian taverns, mostly isolated. Along with the  traditionally gastronomic, enological and accommodation offer, an authentic rural atmosphere, a number of recreation facilities are offered too and can be found only in the rural regions.
Thanks to its favorable climate, Istria is the right place for rearing and raising game and offers the possibility of hunting tourism, which includes the organization of hunts, usually of feathered game (pheasants, quails), small game (hares), and bigger game (boars and bucks).

Istria is a very rich region for what the variety of nature concerns, above all its inland. Steep slopes, natural canyons, dangerous mountain trails and sheer rocks give the lovers of adventure the possibility to practice extreme sports like paragliding (flying), free climbing (rocks climbing), mountain biking, hang gliding, caving... If you really like peace, we recommend a glass of either Teran (red wine) or Malvazija (white wine), Istrian prosciutto and cheese while listening to legends, stories and customs of this region, told by a friendly host. Maybe you will be indulged to experience this autochthon way of life and follow the example of many others before you and thus try to live a life of a countryman and devote yourself to grape gathering, to picking of other products, to looking after the cattle (boškarin is the autochthonous Istrian ox), to milking the goats...and thus relieve yourself from the stress of everyday life. Undoubtedly, it is worth experiencing the sunset and the beneficial effect of Green Istria.
