Nature and Trails

The Dundo Forest is a 101.08-hectare special forest vegetation reserve established in 1949. Dundo is considered one of the best-preserved holm oak forests in the Mediterranean region.

A branch of the Rab Premužić Trail runs through Dundo. It was built using dry-stone masonry and is considered a cultural and historical heritage site. The 14-kilometre Rab–Maman Trail runs through Kampor.

Premužić Trail No. 2 runs mainly along forest paths and is not suitable for bicycles. It leads from Kampor through Dundo to the southern coast of Kalifront and then along the coast to Frkanj and St Euphemia Bay; the route is 15 kilometres long. If hikers become tired on the Rab–Maman Trail, they can board a bus in Kampor or Dumići.

Culture and History

The Museum of the Franciscan Monastery in Kampor contains church art, church silver, manuscripts and mass books from the 15th century, ethnographic objects from the 19th and 20th centuries, as well as numismatic material.

The Monastery of St Euphemia in Kampor was founded in 1444. Its church houses a polyptych by Antonio and Bartolomeo Vivarini; part of the monastery accommodates the Ethnographic Museum of the City of Rab. The monastery library preserves around 7,000 rare books and 34 incunabula.

The fishpond of St Bernardin Monastery is considered a rare surviving example of historical coastal management.

Remembrance

The Kampor Memorial Cemetery is enclosed by a dry-stone coastal wall and comprises an entrance courtyard, a burial ground, a central square and a mausoleum. It was designed in 1953 by architect Edvard Ravnikar and commemorates the victims of the Italian concentration camp on Rab, which existed from 1942 to 1943. The restoration included the entrance wall and entrance gates, the squares, the landscaping, name plaques and the central obelisk.
