Plitvice Lakes National Park amazing what she has seen!
Plitvice Lakes National Park, the most popular tourist attraction in Croatia, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. Halfway between the capital Zagreb and Zadar on the coast, the lakes are a must in Croatia.
The beauty of the national park lies in its 16 lakes, which are connected by a series of waterfalls and are populated in the deep forest of bears, deer, wild boars, wolves and rare bird species. The national park covers a total area of 300 square kilometers, while lakes cover a distance of 8 kilometers.
There is also a fairly heights difference - the highest point is at 1280 meters and the lowest at 380 meters - although the total height difference between the lakes itself is only 135 meters.
Plitvice Lakes isn’t just for summer. It’s a stunning place to visit any time of year as the different seasons see the Park take on different hues, whether that’s lush greenery in spring/summer, rich colours in autumn, or magical scenes in the snow and ice in winter.
Even if conditions are rainy, the park can still be wonderful to explore as the water takes on a dramatic effect – sometimes bubbling up underneath your feet on the wooden pathways!
