The unlocking of the Grape Goat Nature Trail in Vrbovec, together with the carrying of the Grape Goat into the vineyard, is an opportunity to walk this 5 km long trail, leading through the vineyards and cellar alley of Vrbovec, in the company of members of the Friends of the Grape Goat Society, accompanied by the singing of a men's choir, to witness the revival of ancient traditions and to taste the wines of local winemakers.
At each stop along the route of the nature trail, a tasting of wines from one of the local wineries will be prepared. At the church square, at the start or finish, there will be a wine tasting of wines from the Guild of Willow Winegrowers, seating and hot refreshments, and dulcimer music will play.
