About Park Maksimir
Park Maksimir lies east of Zagreb’s center and offers a landscape of avenues, clearings, wooded areas and lakes. It’s a different outing from the cobbled streets of the Upper Town: the interest is in the park’s layout and the time spent walking among trees.
The landscape design combines stretches of vegetation with open spaces and park structures supporting the visit. Paths allow choosing a short loop or proceeding to areas farther from the entrance. You don’t need to cover the entire grounds for the visit to make sense.
Maksimir can take part of an afternoon, especially for those staying more than two days in the capital. The trees change appearance through the year; between December and February days are usually cold and short. To get there, use the tram and complete the trip on foot.
