BCA37 Slatina to Đakovo, Croatia - Balkans Cycle Adventure
Balkans Cycling Adventure - BCA. Cycle Day 37: Slatina to Đakovo, Croatia. 87.3km (301vm). Connal Tours European Cycling Tour 2024. Connal Kit for all your cycle touring clothing.
Another warm - hot day up to 33deg. Not much shade. 5-6 hours on the road makes for an exhausting day. We did get a big downhill reward first up. Deserved that after getting up there last night. Breakfast down in Slatina in the park.
Another day of big agriculture and lots of harvest activity. Could say it was a day of tractors. Carting grain in large trailers. Harvesters operating and moving around from plot to plot. Sunflowers, barley, canola, corn. Large cattle herds - in and out of sheds. Some just using the old shed for shade. Large scale seeding, liquid fertilising from a pond supply using a huge hose connected to tractor. Walnut trees, apple trees, vineyards. Lots of villages - some so neat and full of flowers, others a bit like our suburbia with lots of boxes lining the road.
Thought we'd arrived – stopped for a cold radler, then realised the route had not been plotted to our accom - another 4+ km to go. Our accommodation in the middle of what looks like an interesting town. Here for 2 nights. Rest time and visit the Lipizzaner horses.
Dinner and walk the main square (Strossmayer Square) - conveniently just around the corner. Hot evening. Lots of people out in the street bars. Schoolies (graduates of year 8) seem to abound blowing whistles, wearing graduate T-shirts. Different colours for each class. 8A, 8B etc.
Fortunately, we had a rest day from cycling. Summer Solstice and it's been 38deg if not more. Town busy early at coffee shops and bars. Very quiet the rest of the day. No doubt everyone will come out again after 7. Not that it will be much cooler by then. We decided to visit the famous Lipizzaner State Stud Farm Đakovo in the morning before it got too hot. Horses being very much an honoured part of Slavonian lives. First a walk to the Stallion Station which is in town. This is the training centre for all the stallions for competitive equestrian sports & carriage driving (pairs & 4-in-hands). Quite free to wander around the stables. Solarium, 4 horse automatic walker. Beautiful indoor arena. Taxi ride out to Ivandvor, founded in 1912. About 300 acres producing all their own horse feed. Home to mares, foals, young stallions. About 150 horses. The herd was quite a way off so we didn't get up close but did see some of the new foals & young stallions. Beautiful buildings and setting. Classified as a protected cultural property. The origins of the Stud Farm go back to 1506. Lipizzaner horses moved to Đakovo from Stud Farm Lipica (the origins of the Lipizzan breed). Moved to flee Napoleon's army in 1806. 1997 Republic of Croatia became owner of the Stud Farm. Taxi back to town. Found a cool reprieve in the parish church which was once a Mosque, then the Cathedral and finally the shade in the park. Still too hot. Withdrew to our air-conditioned apartment. Sure enough the street was alive and vibrant when we ventured out again at 7.30. Dinner in an air con restaurant. Schoolies everywhere - blowing whistles, riding in shopping trolleys. Our host from the Horse Stud Farm recognised us in the crowd and told us about a festival happening in the park. So we went along - bonfire going. Many groups performing their song & dance in traditional clothing. We're guessing it was mid-summer, summer solstice, fire jumping & dancing. Still 30deg at 10pm.

NE Slovenia, gems of Styria, Zice & Olimje monastery, Rogaska Slatina & Slovenske konjice
Your guide Tina takes you to the region of Styria in NE Slovenia and shows you two important monasteries and two interesting towns.
Our first stop is in the town of Slovenske Konjice, known as the town of wine and flowers. A walk through the streets of the town, first mentioned in 1165, takes you to the arch parish church of St George which dates to 13 century. Listen to the priests singing when you enter the church. At the time of the Ottoman raids, the church served as a fortified refuge.
Our second stop is in Žiče charterhouse, established in 1160. This was a first Carthusian monastery in the German world and also, the first outside of France or Italy. Its monastic church was dedicated to St John the Baptist. Many cultural events happen during summer; concerts and even weddings. We welcome 20.000 visitors per day.
Our third stop is in Rogaška Slatina, a health resort with 400 years of tradition and the unique Donat Mg mineral water. Rogaška Slatina was awarded the Slovenia Green Destination designation.
Our fourth and final stop is in Olimje Monastery, which lies only a stone throw away from the border of Croatia. It was first a castle in the 16 century, converted to a monastery in the 17 century. Olimje is considered the 3rd oldest pharmacy in the world (1663), after Paris and Dubrovnik. The frescoes in the round room tell us about the path to health and happiness.
Visit the region of Slovenia Styria and learn more about the legends and stories of Slovenian noble family, Counts of Celje. Ask your local guide Tina about the love story between Veronika of Desenic and the count's son, Friderik II. What a story!

BCA36 Đurđevac to Slatina, Croatia - Balkans Cycle Adventure
Balkans Cycling Adventure - BCA. Cycle Day 36: Đurdevac to Slatina, Croatia. 79km (310vm). Connal Tours European Cycling Tour 2024. Connal Kit for all your cycle touring clothing.
Another hot day, needing water refills and seeking shade.
Up to 35deg today with a warm wind. Needed a few shady stops. Visited the castle before leaving town - treated to a cannon bang. Also the Đurdevac sands. Small amount of time with traffic, rest on quiet country roads. Harvest is cranking up, with tractors moving around a lot. More corn, sunflowers (some just peeking out to wave at us). It will be a beautiful sight in 2 weeks. Canola, barley, tobacco. Large acreages. Stork hatchlings perched high in a number of villages.
First stop in Slatina was the bar - ice & water bottle refill, radler & beer. Locals here watching Croatia v Albania. 1.5 km to our accom which we know is uphill. Well, the last hill was a doozey, only 900m but up to 16%. Needless to say, some riding and a little bit walking. Got a real sweat up with that one. All the locals in the bar at our hotel watching Croatia play Albania. We joined them. Bikes parked with a view. Our accom is not doing dinner tonight- shame. Walk back into town. Short cut through huge cemetery. Still hot. Dinner at Kavana Elida. Ćevapi, Ajvar, cucumbers. And walk back up the hill. Nearly a full moon.

Opatija in 4k | Kvarner / Croatia | Pointers Travel DMC / Travel Video

History of Opatija
One of the popular nicknames for Opatija is the cradle of tourism. The first-holiday house in Opatija, the Villa Angiolina was built by Iginio Scarpa in 1844. That year is regarded as the beginning of tourism in town since the Villa Angiolina hosted many famous historical figures including Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria - Hungary, Empress Maria Anna, and the Croatian Ban Josip Jelačić.
The best place to learn about the interesting history of Opatija is the Croatian Museum of Tourism!
Beaches
Opatija offers a wide range of well-equipped beaches for children and adults that have everything you could wish for. The combination of crystal clear sea and luxury beaches is ideal for a perfect holiday. Feel the sand between your toes when you dive into the sea, enjoy the relaxing waves, take your pet to a dog beach, and enjoy a great day in the sun.
Sights
Opatija is truly a charming coastal town full of history and culture! Explore its magnificent monuments, park, and villas. Things you should not miss in Opatija include Maiden with the Seagull, Lungomare, Saint James's Church and of course Villa Angiolina, the cradle of tourism in Opatija!
