The National Park Plitvice Lakes is one of the most beautiful natural
values in Europa.
The group of the Plitvice 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-green water. Plitvice lakes are
considered one of the most beautiful phenomen in the World. They get
their water from numerous small rivers and streams and they are
connected by foamy cascades and roaring falls. In NP Plitvice lakes 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, peace and nature beauty attract
many visitors, and many natur lovers from all over the World.
Due to their unique evolution and beauty in 1979. the Plitvice Lakes
were signed in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Every visit is a new and exceptional experience of nature, its might
and beauty.
