St. Urban Trail

The circular trail starts in Metlika and leads through wine-growing hills, vineyard houses, forests, and fields to the highest point. St. Urban's Church, the patron of grapevine, provides a wide view of Metlika's wine-growing area. Every year in May and on New Year's Eve, a traditional hike takes place, ending at the sports ground in Grabrovec.
