Golden Cape, Forest park in Rovinj, Croatia

Golden Cape, also known as Zlatni rt or Punta Corrente, is a 52.4-hectare forest park on a peninsula about 1.5 km south of Rovinj's old town. It covers Punta Corrente, Montauro, Škaraba, Monvi and Monte Mulini, mixing native pines, holm oaks and olive trees with planted Aleppo pines, ginkgos, eucalyptus, Himalayan cedars and Douglas firs, making it Istria's largest botanical garden.

Around 1890, Austrian industrialist Johann Georg von Hütterott began shaping the forest south of Rovinj into a climatic resort he called Cap Aureo, planning hotels, villas and a bathing and sports area. He also bought the islands Sveti Andrija, Maškin, Sturag and Sveti Ivan. His early death left the project unfinished, but it started Rovinj's tourism; Zlatni rt was protected in 1961.

The park lies about 1.5 km south of Rovinj's old town and covers 52.4 hectares across the Punta Corrente, Montauro, Škaraba, Monvi and Monte Mulini areas. It is closed to motor vehicles, so visitors arrive on foot or by bicycle. At the western tip, the old quarry walls of Cape Montauro are used for climbing and as a lookout point.

In front of the meadow called Punta Corrente, Himalayan cedar trees are planted in a star shape. Hütterott also brought back trees from his travels, including Ginkgo biloba and Lebanese cedar, which still stand among the local pines today.
