In autumn, Villa Harmonia becomes a peaceful and cozy place to relax. Nature in central Istria is especially beautiful at this time of year – vineyards and olive groves turn golden and brown, and the air is fresh and crisp.
Our guests can still enjoy the heated pool and jacuzzi, available throughout the autumn season – perfect for unwinding after a day spent outdoors.
The surrounding area offers many walking and cycling trails through olive groves, vineyards, and gentle hills. Autumn is the ideal time for relaxing walks, bike rides, or simply exploring nearby villages and local taverns. In local restaurants, you can enjoy seasonal specialties such as pasta with mushrooms, apple desserts, and freshly pressed olive oil.
Nearby, you can also find autumn events like olive harvests and wine festivals, giving guests a true taste of authentic Istrian countryside life.













The area around Pićan offers several beautiful walking trails, perfect for autumn. A favourite among visitors is the St. Roch’s Trail (702), which starts in Pićan and leads through the forest to the Sopot Waterfall – a peaceful route for an easy nature walk. Another lovely option is the St. Simon’s Trail (701), starting in nearby Gračišće, winding through vineyards, olive groves and gentle hills with stunning views of central Istria.
During autumn, the region hosts several local events. In the nearby village of Sv. Katarina (near Pićan), visitors can experience the Olive Oil and Wine Fair, celebrating new olive oil and local wines. Across Istria, Martinje (St. Martin’s Day) marks the traditional blessing of young wine, and in November, the Chocolate Festival in Opatija offers a sweet reason to explore the coast after your autumn walks.

A BEAUTIFUL JACUZZI FOR TWO 💗
In autumn, there’s nothing better than relaxing in the warm jacuzzi with ambient lighting, surrounded by the peace and quiet of Istrian nature. It’s the perfect moment for a glass of young wine or a cup of hot tea, while enjoying the view of golden olive groves and vineyards. After a walk or a cool autumn day, the jacuzzi is the best way to warm up and unwind.
When the weather is nice, guests can also enjoy the outdoor heated pool, available throughout the autumn season.

A ROMANTIC FIREPLACE ❤️🔥
In the evening, unwind by the wood-burning fireplace, which warms and brightens the entire living room. The gentle crackling of the fire creates a cozy, peaceful atmosphere – a perfect way to end a day spent exploring Istria’s nature.
