Slavonian plains, Slavonian black pigs and the top quality delicacies made from it, the vineyards that are the home of famous Graš evina, Traminer, Frankovka, Kopački rit the Nature Park, the largest freshwater fish hatchery and the area inhabited by around 140 species of birds are only a fraction of a memo that you will bring with you when you return from the tour.
An active journey starts with a visit to the wine cellar and the tasting of protected indigenous sausage delicacies – kulen. Continues in Našice. Knights Templars had once been inhabited by them, and nearly 700 years later, Pejačević’s Count Family built their castle in them.
And each and every one of them left the historical traces of the dishes they enjoyed, and we’ll try them also. The next day is dedicated to the tour of the most famous wineries and gazebos, the participation in the preparation of carp on forks and the famous fish dish and the beef stew on the open fire, walking on the Street of Forgotten Time …
Of course, specialties such as Slavonian sausages, pork rind, roasted meat and ducks will not be overlooked during the day. Next day we will visit Osijek, its Fortress and Museum, and on one of the ships dredged on the river Drava try the fish-chips and sweet homemade noodles made by an old recipe.
Our next destination is Slavonski Brod in whose fortress revives the strategy of the battle against the Turks. Before and after Slavonski Brod, when we will be on our way we will taste local specialties and wines, including raspberry wines.
