Stube Bartola Felbingera Zagreb

Stairway to heaven

Nina from Zagreb

""Stube Bartola Felbingera" Zagreb is a staircase that leads from Downtown to the Upper Town. Not many tourists come here, even though the views are great!"

There are many paths that lead from Zagreb Downtown to the Upper Town, the most famous of which is assuredly Stone Gate (if you are in for a walk) and the funicular (if you don’t feel like walking). My favorite path, however, is a path less traveled, the Bartol Felbinger stairs. It connects the Radićeva street and the vivacious, boisterous Tkalčićeva street.

The stairs are not very steep, but there's quite a lot of them, so it’s a good workout. It also gives you a great view over Tkalčićeva street, but it is much quieter and devoid of big tourist groups. Also, on the right side of the stairs (looking from Tkalčićeva) one can see the last remnants of the Upper Town’s vineyards. On the left side, you can see old houses, some dating from the Middle Ages, some renovated.

I like this path because it’s never as crowded as the more prominent ones, and it also has such an enjoyable view. It is also a very quiet and romantic spot for those in love.

Zagreb Spotter Nina

About me My name is Nina, and I have been living in my hometown of Zagreb my whole life. I love travelling and seeing new places, but I also love coming home. I am a pharmacist by profession and enjoy my work at a community pharmacy. I also hold a license as a local tour guide for Zagreb and Zagreb County, and I love combining these two professions and showing people around the town through the eyes of a scientist or science enthusiast. I also love reading, going to the cinema and taking short weekend trips with my family and friends. Why Zagreb...
