Getting There

• Bus

  From Ptuj, walk to the Ptuj Bus Station located near the center of the city. Look for buses heading to Varaždin. The journey usually takes about 30 minutes. Buses are relatively frequent, so check the schedule for the next departure. Once you arrive at the Varaždin Bus Station, exit the station and head northwest on Ulica Antuna Mihanovića towards Ulica Svetog Florijana. Continue straight until you reach the main square.

• Train

  Although there is no direct train from Ptuj to Varaždin, you can take a train from Ptuj to the nearest major city with train connections, such as Maribor. From the Ptuj Train Station, board a train to Maribor. Once in Maribor, transfer to a train heading to Varaždin. After arriving at the Varaždin Train Station, exit the station, turn left onto Ulica Kralja Tomislava, and walk straight until you reach the Old Town area.

• Walking

  If you prefer to walk, it is a scenic route but quite long. Start from the center of Ptuj and head south towards the Drava River. Follow the riverbank until you reach the bridge leading to the nearby village of Ptujska Gora. Cross the bridge and continue walking along the paths that lead towards Varaždin. Make sure to have a map or a GPS-enabled device, as this route can be less direct and may take several hours.
