Lipnicka Gorica, Ribnjak – Rural destination of Croatia

hotel koranaThe village of Lipnicka Gorica in the municipality of Ribnjak, situated on the Croatian-Slovene border in Karlovac County, was  recently declared extinct and non-existent, but today it is the home of the rural tourism Srakovcic Estate owned by Karlovac hospitality industry businessman Ivan Srakovcic.

Almost 90% of the population of Lipnicka Gorica and other settlements  in this passive region in the western corner of Karlovac County  have moved away over the past 50 years, which has almost resulted in their disappearance from geographic maps.

Ivan Srakovcic, owner of the Korana, one of the best family-operated hotels in Croatia, cites the natural beauty of the Ribnjak region, from which he draws his own roots, as one of the reasons he has  jumped on board the rural tourism bandwagon.

Srakovcic is a pioneer in national development programs, who  used a favourable loan to launch his small family hotel, and it is  little wonder that his new project has received the backing of the  Croatian Ministry of the Sea, Tourism, Transport and Development, which is assisting him in the construction effort, and of the Ministry of Agriculture, which is helping to implement the program.

More than a milion kuna have been invested to date in the renovation of the family estate and the construction of a brewery, a seminar hall and bowers for a restaurant, and 2 million more have been earmarked  for further investment as Srakovcic wants to base his offer  on twenty rooms in four authentic wooden cottages, with a wine  cellar that would double as a reception area.
