Each summer, in collaboration with local agencies, we welcome visitors to our organic family farm in Lepuri for an immersive oleotourism experience – from walking through our wild Dalmatian grove and seeing how our high-polyphenol olive oil is made, to learning about the region’s history, terroir, people and the scientifically proven health benefits of extra virgin olive oil.
In the small village of Lepuri, near the town of Benkovac, just 40 km from Zadar and 30 km from Šibenik, you’ll find the Olive Farm Lepuri. Spanning an area of approximately 20 hectares, our olive grove is home to 4,000 organically grown olive trees, all planted on virgin land that has never been cultivated or treated before.
We are proud to collaborate with local stakeholders to offer educational tours and olive oil tastings that immerse visitors in the fascinating world of olive cultivation. Our programs are designed to introduce guests to the entire olive oil production process, the different types and qualities of olive oil, and their unique aromas and flavours. As the sun sets, we guide you through our grove, sharing stories about the history of the region and the traditions of olive growing, harvesting and processing. You’ll gain insights into the rich culture, landscape and heritage of Dalmatia, making your visit not only informative but deeply enriching.
Join us in Lepuri for a journey that celebrates the art and science of olive oil production, and discover the profound connection between the land and the exceptional oils it produces. Whether you are an olive oil enthusiast or simply curious to learn more about this essential part of Mediterranean culture, our oleotourism experience is sure to leave a lasting impression.
