Karst Common Land Festival

The Karst Common Land Festival, in its spring edition, invites visitors to discover one of the oldest cultural landscapes. The Karst common land is considered one of the richest habitats in Europe and beyond. This exceptional area is also at the heart of the current edition of nature-based and heritage tourism activities.

Events of the Karst Common Land Festival, which take place in the area of the emerging cross-border Kras–Carso Geopark, are free of charge for visitors. Due to the limited number of available places, registration is required.

More information and registration are available on the festival’s website.
