Plitvice Lakes National Park

In 1979 Plitvice Lakes National Park was awarded recognition as a UNESCO world heritage site.

Plitvička Jezera, as it’s known in Croatian, has sixteen tiered interconnected lakes & together with a series of gushing waterfalls are a popular spot for both locals and travellers. The lakes are world-famous for their ever-changing colours.

Shades of teal, turquoise and deep blues to greys dazzle throughout the year. The park also has a number of hiking trails giving keen adventurers the chance to see the park from all angles. Plitvice Lakes sits approximately halfway between Zadar and Zagreb, and is a day trip from either location or you can find accommodation close by.
