Lunjski maslinici
A plant reserve at the northern tip of Pag Island, with about 80,000 wild olive trees, the oldest more than a thousand years old.
Lun Olive Gardens lies in the village of Lun at the northern tip of the peninsula. Inside the stone-walled woodland grow about 80,000 wild grafted olive trees, around 1,500 of which are more than a thousand years old. The area is designated a plant reserve. Marked trails and ancient trees are inside, and the entrance visitor centre explains olive culture, where you can taste and buy local olive oil. Admission costs a few euros, and a walk takes 1–2 hours. It is about 25 km from Novalja. Summer midday is very hot, so visit in the early morning or late afternoon.
