The programme of the tour and special experience The guided tour starts at the bridge in front of the castle entrance. After an introductory greeting and a short presentation, the castle guide will lead you through the castle’s tree-lined avenue to Šance, a structure designed by Jože Plečnik. There you will learn, among other things, what plans the master architect had for the castle and which plans he managed to implement. The path then continues through the forest to the Castle Vineyard, where 1,050 vines of white and red varieties of castle wine have been growing since 2016. The guide will reveal which varieties are growing and why they are in this location. After just the right dose of history and art, it will be time to relax in the green oasis above the city. Make yourself comfortable and enjoy local delicacies from the picnic basket and a toast with castle wine. After a pleasant rest, the guide will lead you back to the castle. The guided tour ends in the Castle Courtyard next to the castle grapevine, which is a descendant of the oldest grapevine in the world from the Lent district of Maribor. A picnic for two or with friends... the decision is yours. Simply dress comfortably and join us on a slightly different experience that is cultural, historical and culinary at the same time.
