The viewpoint Grimalda is a small settlement in the heart of Istria, located about 15 kilometres from Pazin, offering enchanting views of the Istrian landscape and Lake Butoniga. Accommodation in Pazin provides an excellent opportunity for a short drive along local roads winding through vineyards to reach this hilltop village. The viewpoint Grimalda is peaceful, non-commercial, and ideal for those seeking an escape from the crowds and wishing to experience the “green Istria” at its finest. Grimalda has only around seventy residents living in about twenty households that crown a picturesque hill at an altitude of 447 metres, from where magical vineyards cascade down towards the lake that supplies drinking water to a large part of Istria.
