LAKE BUTONIGA NEAR PAZIN

ISTRIADUCTION April | All Year | Free Entrance Lake Butoniga; it is located in the center of Istria and supplies water to the entire area up to the city of Pula. This artificial lake was created in the 80's, and since it is located in the middle of the Istrian picturesque hills, it gives the surroundings a special beauty and thus creates incredibly beautiful scenes and views that leave no one indifferent. This accumulation lake was created by immersing the valley of the left tributary of the river Mirna, where its torrent tributaries Butoniga, Dragućki and Račički potok meet. Although swimming is forbidden in this lake, precisely because of the water supply, you can still enjoy a walk around the lake, climb the surrounding hills and enjoy the view of many Istrian places that look especially beautiful when viewed from a height. Choose a bright and sunny day for a walk so that you can enjoy the beautiful views of the hills and the surrounding area, and later stop in nearby Motovun for a glass of fine wine and first-class dishes with truffles.

CREEK BUTONIGA – THE HIDDEN JEWEL OF ISTRIA

ISTRIADUCTION  All Year | No Working time | Free Entrance U subotu 4.2.2017. godine uputio sam se u kanjon potoka Butonige, kako bih istražio taj skriveni dragulj Istre. Potok Butoniga je poznat kao jedan od tri najveća pritoka istoimenog akumulacijskog jezera, no postoji prilično malo teksta i fotografija o njemu i to sam želio ispraviti. Nedaleko Starog grada (Zelengrada) u potok Butoniga utječe i Grdoselski potok, a područje oko Grdoselskog potoka slovi za jedinu istarsku prašumu. Oba su potoka prepuna prekrasnih slapova, a u vrijeme mog posjeta potok je obilovao vodom, što mu je dalo svu čar. U pet sati koliko sam proveo u kanjonu izmijenila su se sva četiri godišnja doba i na samom kraju sam izgubio bitku s kišnim oblacima, no ostaje veliko zadovoljstvo i oduševljenje potokom koji je urezao svoje korito u kamen i oblikovao prava mala remek dijela. Na području oko nekadašnjeg Zelengrada postojalo je čak 10 mlinova, a ostatke njih četiri sam pronašao prilikom ovog foto istraživanja. Područje Grdosela i Butonige je od iznimne povijesne vrijednosti i u istraživanje prirodnih ljepota te povijesti ovog kraja ću zasigurno uložiti još dosta vremena, a isto preporučam i vama, jer ovo je
