Zrinski Old Town is a landmark of Čakovec and Međimurje County, a symbol of their history.
Situated in the town centre, it connects the busy streets with the historical tale told in the midst of a lovely park, creating a story in which the two sides wonderfully intertwine. It is believed that the Old Town was built in the second half of the 13th century. The ruler at the time was Dimitrije Čak, who Čakovec was named after.

Štrigova – Mađerkin Breg
Štrigova is a place where the land fell in love with the skies, caressing them with its peaks while awarded with only the best in return. The sun and rain when necessary, snow and fog when protection is called for.
The same is true for the people. Leaning on each other, of pure soul and mind, they still live leisurely in accordance with ancient customs simply leading life in harmony with nature. Štrigova and its vicinity still cherish what the modern world has practically forgotten.

Mlin na Muri (Extra Day)
“Mlin na Muri” means Mill on river Mura, or Mura Mill in short
Here, the lunch will be served, and we will rest and enjoy the surroundings.
About the venue:
At the northernmost point of the Republic of Croatia, near the small settlement called Žabnik, the Mura River turns the impressive wheel of a wooden river mill. It is a unique object of traditional architectural heritage in Croatia. The murmur of the water and the creak of the stone millstone take visitors back to the distant year 1902, when flour was first ground on this floating “old man”.
Around the mill, in an idyllic natural setting, the “Miller’s Educational Trail” has been arranged. In addition to a walk-through preserved nature, this educational trail also offers a wealth of interesting information about the natural and traditional heritage of the area of the Mura River Significant Landscape.
There is also a river ferry – a vessel that, like a perpetual motion machine, transports people and vehicles from one riverbank to the other, without engines, sails or oars. So interested participants would be able to ride the river ferry, and visit the other
