Why it is worth your time
Just above the Upper Town begins the Tuškanac woodland park, and through it runs the nearly two-kilometre Dubravkin put along a stream. Once called Sofia's Path, after Ban Jelačić's wife who loved to walk it, it is today the quickest escape from the city's bustle into the shade and silence of the forest.
Croatia Atlas tip
Enter from above the Upper Town and walk down the stream path: twelve nature panels line the way.
