Vrbnik

A medieval town built on a 48-metre sea cliff, said to have one of the narrowest streets in the world, and the home of Žlahtina, the white wine of Krk.

Vrbnik lies on the east coast of Krk Island. The whole town sits on a sea cliff about 48 metres high, with stone houses clinging to the edge and overlooking the Vinodol Channel and the Velebit mountains on the opposite shore. The town has a lane only about 40 centimetres wide (Klančić), said to be one of the narrowest streets in the world. This is also the core production area for Krk's white wine, Žlahtina, and wine can be tasted in the town and in the cellars nearby. It is about a 20-minute drive from Krk Town and free.
