The beautiful Lika village of Brinje on the slopes of Velika kapela and Velebit is marked by a particularly continental climate. The fortress, which used to be a favourite of the Frankopan counts, hides edifices of exceptional value: the chapel of St. Fabijan and Sebastian (single-nave church from the 14th century), the parish church, Sokolac; one of the most beautiful monuments from medieval times, a stone bridge over the Gate stream, more than 200 years old and boasting a sun dial.
Should your journey take you to Lika, or if you are merely a passer-by on your way to the sea, stop here and enjoy the immense beauty of this corner of the Lika region!
