Piramida Hill
Piramida
A vineyard-covered hill next to the City Park, once the site of Maribor's earliest castle, offering panoramic views over the city.
Piramida Hill rises to about 386 metres, lies next to the City Park, and has slopes covered in vineyards. At the summit are a small chapel and the remains of an old castle; Maribor's earliest castle stood here in the 12th century. The climb along the vineyard trail from the park takes about 20 to 30 minutes. From the top you can look out over the Old Town's red roofs, the Drava River and the Pohorje mountains, and sunset here is especially beautiful. Admission is free, but the path is steep, so wear non-slip shoes.
