Even more ideas for an unforgettable Sunday in Maribor
Start your day at the Old Vine House, home to the oldest vine in the world. While discovering stories about the region’s rich wine-growing heritage, enjoy a glass of sparkling wine from the Old Vine or a coffee in the cosy courtyard by the Drava River — the perfect start to a relaxing Sunday in the city.
Maribor invites you to shape your day your way — be it relaxed, culturally inspired, or active in nature. Take a walk along the renovated Lent waterfront, where you can soak up the sun by the river. Treat yourself to an ice cream at Ilich or a coffee at Astoria Café, charming you with its historic atmosphere.
For the active ones, there’s the Betnava Adventure Park with numerous trails for walking, running, or cycling. Pohorje, a popular destination for hikers, cyclists, and skiers, offers a refreshing summer retreat in the heart of nature. And when the summer heat kicks in, a visit to Mariborski otok, the city’s outdoor swimming pool, is the perfect oasis for relaxation and cooling off.
Maribor has so much more to offer on Sundays. Discover its hidden spots, experiences, and create memories that last.
