Moje Sljeme: Explore the Beauty of Medvednica
Moje Sljeme, developed by Grad Zagreb, is a free iPhone application designed for the residents and visitors of the city. Its main aim is to bring people closer to nature, promote outdoor activities, and encourage Zagreb locals to rediscover the hiking trails, slopes, and peaks of Medvednica. This app provides a safe way to hike and explore the Medvednica Nature Park, often referred to as the green lungs of Zagreb.
In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, boosting immunity through activities like hiking and spending time in nature is of great importance. With its navigation and other features, Moje Sljeme offers a sense of security to inexperienced hikers and popularizes walking in nature. Ultimately, this may also lead to a decrease in the number of cars on Mount Sljeme, aligning with a healthier lifestyle.
Zagreb is one of the few capital cities in the world that has its own mountain in close proximity. Moje Sljeme, among other things, serves as an excellent tool for attracting foreign visitors. Despite already being an attractive tourist destination, this app is expected to contribute to even higher visitor numbers.
Outdoor activities are crucial for maintaining good health, and by promoting outdoor experiences, the City of Zagreb aims to send a message to its citizens about the importance of spending time in nature. This not only helps preserve physical health, but also plays a significant role in maintaining mental well-being, which should never be overlooked.
The app's functionalities include navigation, a list of trails, information on mountain huts and other destinations such as springs, caves, and religious sites, detailed descriptions, image galleries, and weather forecasts, among others.
