Medjimurje, Vincek March I

Last Sunday (24 January) we participated in the Vincek March in Medjimurje, Croatia. It is organized by mountaineering club Bundek in Mursko Sredisce. The march takes place every January on the first Sunday after the St. Vincent Day, 22 Jan. St. Vincent is the patron of winegrowers.

We gathered in the spa resort St. Martin on Mura in the morning.

The trail twists and turns among the numerous vineyards on hills.

This was the 12th march. Hikers from Croatia, Bosnia, Hungary and Slovenia walked in a long row.

People of all walks of life and almost all ages took part in the march.
