TOURIST AND CULTURAL SIGHTS

City of Goričko

The castle building is one of the most extensive feudal complexes in Slovenia. The castle is a real specialty, as we are first surprised by the unusual shape of the inner courtyard with a higher western and lower eastern level, which is due to the shape of the castle hill. The castle courtyard, surrounded by towering arcades, is surrounded by a pentagonal floor plan of perimeter tracts, reaching in some places to the first and in some places to the second floor. Although the design hides elements of the medieval castle core, today the whole shows a Baroque image from the 17th century. It also includes parts from the 16th and 18th centuries (1751), especially the chapel with a varied roof and the bell tower. More about the castle

Kanja, kragulj and postovka reign in the air, and we meet swallows, daughters-in-law, fireflies and, of course, storks. The area around the lake is surrounded by forests, which are home to deer, deer and wild boar. Pheasant, partridge, quail and hare are present on the outskirts. It is also worth visiting over 300 interesting and beautiful plant species. On the elevated area by the lake is the chapel of St. Vida and below it the well of the same name.

In a diameter of 450 meters around the spring, 26 healing points have been discovered and marked. Lake Bukovnik with its walking paths is a great family trip to nature.
