About the route
A quiet forest outing to two forts, suitable for all ages. It starts at the chapel in Paka, leads to Paka Fort and on along a gravel road to Čanjevo, and on the way back takes in the Ribelj viewpoint.
You can begin your hiking adventure to the two forts in the village of Paka, at the chapel, where there is parking, a children’s playground, a football pitch and water.
Gravel roads and hiking paths lead you to the fort of the same name, hidden in the forest. If this relatively short stretch of hiking and history is not enough, you can carry on in the same direction to the remains of another fortress near the village of Čanjevo.
