Trails

The P3 “Under the Climbing Wall” trail is 15 kilometres long and takes approximately four to five hours on foot. It starts at the car park by the autocamp in Osp. The combination of distance and walking time indicates the extent of this route. The “Krožna pot gradov” castle loop trail also passes through the village. Another connection is described by the K2 route around Tinjan: it leads to Osp and the famous climbing wall with the source of the Osp River.

Nature

Osapska jama Cave, also called Jama Grad, is a horizontal cave with a watercourse in the sinkhole basin of Osp.

Culture

Osp was first mentioned in 1067. The compact old village is characterised by a labyrinth of narrow streets. On the edge of Osp stands the 18th-century Church of Saint Thomas. It is registered as a sacred architectural monument of architectural heritage; the parish church of Saint Thomas was renovated in the late Baroque style.

The area around the fortification at Jama Grad is also part of the village’s history: it is an archaeological site with finds from prehistoric, Roman, medieval and modern times. Thus, in Osp, evidence from various periods stands alongside the old village centre and narrow streets.
