Geocache Description:


HR

 

Do Male Učke vodi makadamska cesta od sela Vela Učka.

Mala Učka najviše je ruralno naselje u Istri, smješteno na 995 metara nadmorske visine.

Nekad je ovdje živjelo 130 stanovnika koji su se zvali Učkari, bavili se stočarstvom i bili poznati po dobrom siru.

Za vrijeme Drugog svjetskog rata, točnije 30. travnja 1944. godine, selo je do temelja spaljeno, te su se Učkari poslije rata iselili zbog teških gospodarskih prilika. Selo je i u takvom stanju ostalo dovoljno slikovito da ga se 1976. godine upiše u Registar nepokretnih spomenika kulture kao zaštićenu ruralnu cjelinu. Danas je Mala Učka bez stalnih stanovnika, no ljetne mjesece, tijekom ovdašnje kvalitetne ispaše, u Maloj Učki provodi ovčarska obitelj, a s njihovog kućnog praga možete kupiti odličan ovčji sir.

Šarolikost flore i pejzažna ljepota reljefa i krajolika s ruralnim kvalitetama naselja okruženog stijenama i pašnjacima predstavljaju izuzetnu prirodnu vrijednost.

 

Molimo vas da oprezno postupate sa geocacheom!

Mala Učka can be reached by macadam road from the village of Vela Učka.

Mala (Little) Učka is the most rural village in Istria, located at 995 meters above sea level.

There were 130 people living here who were called Učkari and were engaged in cattle breeding and were famous for their good cheese.

During the WWII, on April 30, 1944, the village was burnt to the ground, and Učkari left after the war because of difficult economic situation. The village still remained picturesque enough to be included in the register of immovable cultural monuments as a protected rural entity in 1976. Today, Little Učka has no permanent inhabitants, but during the summer months, due to high-quality harvest, in Mala Učka a shepherd's family is spending the summer, and you can buy excellent sheep's cheese from them.

The variety of flora and landscape beauty of reliefs with rural qualities of settlements surrounded by rocks and pastures represent an exceptional natural value.

Please handle carefully with the cache!
