Sečovlje Salina Landscape Park
Sečovlje Salina Landscape Park
This wetland park is a protected wetland area located at the mouth of the Dragonja River. It is primarily known for its traditional salt pans, where salt is still harvested using ancient methods. Visitors go here to walk through the salt evaporation ponds and observe the specific landscape and biodiversity of the coastal marshes.
Getting There
The park is located near the village of Sečovlje, outside the center of Koper. By car or local transport, the journey from Koper city center typically takes about 15 to 20 minutes.
Visit Duration
Allow approximately 2 to 3 hours to explore the walking paths and view the salt production areas.
When to Visit
The park is accessible throughout the year, but the salt harvesting process is most active during the summer months. Early morning or late afternoon visits are recommended to avoid the midday heat, as the open salt pans provide little shade. The area can become crowded during the peak summer tourist season.

The park can be combined with other nearby sites in the coastal region:
- Strunjan Natural Park (4.6km)
