Doživite pristno dušo Gorička na kolesarski turi, ki vas popelje skozi čas, neokrnjeno naravo in pravljično podeželsko krajino. Pot vas vodi mimo očarljivih starih cimpranih hiš s slamnatimi strehami, ki pričajo o stavbni dediščini ter življenju nekdanjih rodov, ter skozi skrivnostne odseke, ki potekajo po unikatni močvirnati pokrajini. Med vrtenjem pedalov boste občudovali veličastni, več kot 700 let stari orjaški kostanj in obiskali izjemno cerkev panonske romanike iz začetka 13. stoletja, ki velja za enega najdragocenejših kulturnih spomenikov tega prostora.
Vsak kilometer ture spremljajo čudoviti panoramski razgledi na mehko valovite griče, sadovnjake in gozdove, ki dajejo tej pokrajini njen prepoznaven, pomirjujoč značaj. Ta vožnja je popolna kombinacija naravnih posebnosti, globoke zgodovine in sproščujočega kolesarjenja po odmaknjenih, mirnih poti.
