Hot, dry summers and the cold north wind called ‘burja’ or bora have helped shape the Karst landscape of today. Despite the difficult weather conditions they lived and worked in, the people of the Karst, with their diligence and stubbornness, have managed to create their own piece of paradise that will surely grip every visitor.

 

Seemingly endless stone walls stand testament to the hard-working character of the Karst people. We will do our best to satisfy your curiosity and enable you to learn more about their ancient crafts and customs. From Villa Dane we will take you to meet the masters of handicrafts such as quarrying, bee keeping, and grazing. In the summer we can take you to lavender fields, where the delicate scents beautiful rainbow colours of flowers and butterflies provide the backdrop to lavender harvesting, and where in the autumn, you can enjoy the bright colours of the vineyards, taste the wine and learn about the vines from which the Karst Teran is made.
