Plitvice Lakes National Park • Section 1 of 5

Welcome to the oldest and largest national park in Croatia, a place where water has quite literally spent thousands of years sculpting a masterpiece. You are standing in the heart of the Lika-Senj region, surrounded by a breathtaking system of sixteen named lakes and nearly a hundred cascading waterfalls. In nineteen seventy-nine, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization, or U-N-E-S-C-O, recognized this landscape as a World Heritage site, not just for its beauty, but for a unique biological and geological process that is still happening right beneath your feet. As you begin your journey today, imagine that this entire area was once part of an ancient seabed millions of years ago. Today, it is a vibrant labyrinth of turquoise basins and emerald forests. You are deeply connected to the pulse of central Croatia here, where the sound of rushing water is the constant soundtrack to your exploration.
