Dražice: Holiday Apartments and Houses

Dražice is home to the Jelenski sajam, traditionally held here as a meeting place for local producers, craftspeople, and visitors from the region. The market showcases homemade products as well as offerings from family businesses and home-based craftspeople, and is held every second Saturday of the month.

Those who choose Dražice as a travel destination may wish to rent a holiday apartment.

Festivals and Gastronomy

For years, Dražice has hosted the palente i sira festival, which showcases traditional gastronomy. Traditionally, the polenta is overturned at Trg mlikarice during the festival.

Culture and Crafts

A monument to the mlikarice stands at Trg mlikarice; it was erected in 2007 and restored in 2018. The Grobniške mlikarice walked around 30 kilometers every day while carrying heavy loads.

In mid-July, the Feral ki j’ pušćal sinjal festival is traditionally held at Trg mlikarice in Dražice, bringing together residents and visitors. The festival includes exhibitions, stalls, music, and dancing. The blacksmith Damir Marčelja demonstrates historical blacksmithing techniques for visitors.

Landscape

The Nebeski labirinti in Dražice consist of nine stone structures next to the Sušica; visitors can walk through them barefoot.

In the wider surrounding region of Dražice, the Planinarski dom Hahlić stands at almost 1,100 meters on the southern slope of Obruč. From there, the view extends across the Bay of Rijeka, the Kvarner Islands, Grobnišćina, and Učka.
