Location & Transportation |
|
|
|
Apart from a very practical location in the vicinity of all the three coastal towns (Koper, Izola and Piran), Korte also offers tranquillity and nature of the genuine Istrian countryside. The surrounding countryside with the avrinsko gricevje hills offers a truly beautiful view.
The village consists of two parts. The Lower Village (Dolnja vas), where the houses on the pier huddle around the jugna (an open air dancing area), contains two prominent buildings: the skyscraper (neboticnik), which stands next to the road Koper-Buje, and the baroque house that dates back to 1738.
In the Upper Village (Gornja vas) stands the church of St. Anton the Hermit, which prides itself with baroque Bigocci altars from 1468. The church is very acoustic and suitable for concerts.
We are currently designing additional and extremely fun programmes for all who visit the youth hostel Old School Korte. Apart from a simple holiday we will be offering sports activities (cycling, horseback riding, hiking ) as well as culinary and historical activities (visits to an oil mill, a tour of a typical Istrian farm and the local villages, tasting of typical Istrian wines and a visit to the wine cellars). | | Directions | By car:
