Activities in Zagreb

Mt Medvednica
Mt Medvednica offers excellent hiking opportunities. There are two popular routes: you can take tram 14 to the last stop and then change to tram 15 and take it to the last stop. Here you'll be near the funicular that goes to the top of the mountain; next to the funicular there is a clearly marked footpath that also takes you to the top. Or you can take bus 102 from Britanski trg, west of the centre on Ilica, to the church in Šestine and take the hiking route from there.
Allow about three hours for each of these hikes and remember that this is a heavily wooded mountain with ample opportunities to become completely lost. Take warm clothes and water, and make sure to return…

Sljeme
Although Zagreb is not normally associated with winter sports, if the snow lasts long enough you can ski right outside town at Sljeme, the main peak of Mt Medvednica. It has four ski runs, three ski lifts and a triple chairlift.
