Why go
Sixteen terraced lakes linked by waterfalls and boardwalks.
Plitvice is a boardwalk circuit rather than a hiking park, and it is at its busiest between 10am and 3pm. Autumn colour and spring water volume are both strong reasons to time it carefully.
Signature experiences
- Upper and lower lakes boardwalk circuit
- Electric boat across Kozjak
- Veliki Slap waterfall
