(DANDELION) RADIČKA HOLIDAY IN LIPA


Event Details


Radička Holiday
Hike on Trstelj

The village development tourist Society Škrla from Lipa on Karst also this year invites you to the spring holiday of dandelion – “radičke” with Slovenian word. With this event in Lipa, they mark the beginning of the spring and show honor to dandelion, seemingly humble and ordinary, but extremely useful plant, which once offered the first fresh green sprouts on karst plates.

 

Nowadays, fresh vegetables from shops can be eaten all year around, but at the same time “wild” food, picked up in the domestic natural environment, due to its higher nutritional value and taste, is gaining its importance. In Lipa on Karst, the spring village holiday, organized on Sunday, March 24th, will be dedicated to dandelion or lip’nsko radički. Also this year, visitors will be able to taste home-made dishes from dandelion – from traditional recipes, such as dandelion salat with eggs, as well as more “creative” one, such as dandelion soups, rolls or even sweets. The tasting will be available in front of the village home from 12.00, so you can make an interesting Karst lunch from dandelion’s snacks.

 

A spring hike on Karst can be enjoyed by visitors with a guided hike along the sightseeing paths above Lipa, with the (not difficult) ascent to Trstelj – with a view towards the Alps and Adriatic sea. The gathering point for hikers is in Lipa, at village home between 9.00 and 9.30. The hike will take about 3 hours, and when returning in Lipa, all hikers will be served with hot snack and drink upon paying the fee. For children and young people up to the age of 15 the tour, drinks, and hot snack is free of charge.

 

In cooperation with: municipality Miren Kostanjevica, Cultural Society Temnica, Miren Krsa, Travel Slovenia (www.travel-slovenia.si) and Society of Small Breed Animals Breeders Gornja Radgona (https://www.facebook.com/DGMP%C5%BE-Gornja-Radgona-332741257326634/).
The visitors will be able to finish their day in the village (temporary/seasonal) shop Na lehtah in Lipa, which opens their door between March 22. and 31, 2019 (Seasonal shop Na lehtah – Leban => https://www.facebook.com/osmica.na.lehtah/).

 

Wild food will invite to the Karst also in April and May, more thoroughly between April 5th and May 5th, 2019, as part of the culinary event Wild flavors of the Karst – asparagus and wild plants, so organized on several locations on Karst by Public Institute Komenski Kras (https://www.visitkras.info/prireditve/kulinaricne_prireditve/213/divji_okusi_krasa__sparglji_in_divje_rastline/).
