The group of the Plitvička jezera lakes, proclaimed a National Park in 1949, are a mountain area covered by woods with a string of 16 beautiful little and great lakes of crystal clear blue-greenish water. They get their water from numerous small rivers and streams and they are connected by foamy cascades and roaring falls.
In NP Plitvička jezera the barriers between the lakes, across which fall beautiful big and small falls, are created in a special natural way.
They are calciferous formations that are solid, porous and breakable calciferous rock called travertine.
Extraordinary beauty of lakes and falls, rich flora and fauna, the contrast of autumn colours, magnificent winter scenery, woods and mountain air, walks through woods and over wooden bridges, comfortable homely hotels and restaurants attract many visitors from all over the world.
Every visit is a new and exceptional experience of nature, its might and beauty.
