ka Mountain. It took us a little while driving to find the starting location for the hike. We started our hike about three in the afternoon on a hot July day. We were so fortunate that the hike was through a beautiful cool forest. Here's the description from "Croatia's 10 best Hikes Blog."
In Istria, not far from Rijeka, is 1400 m high Ucka Mountain. The mountain has several memorable hikes, but the best is a half-day hike to the stone tower on the summit of Vojak peak. There you’ll be rewarded with 360 degree views of the Istrian peninsula, northern Adriatic islands, mountains of the Gorski Kotar region, all the way to Venice and the Alps.
It's not easy to keep up with our young missionaries hiking. The view from the summit was gorgeous.
