A stroll through the grassy moats of the old star fortress.
The defensive moats of Karlovac's star fortress turned into green hollows long ago, and this walk runs right through them: down in the former moat, between grassy banks, with the old town just above you. Where water and ramparts once guarded the city, you now trace its star points through greenery. An unusual angle on a ground plan you would otherwise only see from the air.
