The Plitvice Lakes complex,
established as a national park in 1949, is a wooded mountain area with 16 beautiful small
and large crystal blue-green lakes. Numerous small rivers and streams fill the lakes,
which are connected by sparkling cascades and murmuring waterfalls.
Because of their unique structure and life forms, the Plitvice Lakes were registered on
the UNESCO World Natural Heritage List in 1979.
Every year, almost a million visitors are attracted by the extraordinary natural beauty of
the park’s lakes and waterfalls, the richness of the animal and floral life, the
wonderful contrasts of autumn colors, the enchanting winter motifs and the mountain air.
There are many park activities that include rowing and walking along forest paths and
across little wooden bridges. Comfortable hotels and restaurants with a family atmosphere
ensure a pleasant holiday.
Each new visit is a refreshing and unique experience of the strength and beauty of nature. |
