You can reach this strange and beautiful natural wonder by road or by tour boat from Rovinj’s port.
It is described as both a fjord and a canal, but really it’s a 10 kilometre-long river canyon guarded by steep wooded mountainsides that soar to 100 metres.
What really makes this scene and gives it the appearance of a fjord is the width of the river, up to 600 metres in places.
