Plitvice Lakes National Park in Croatia


Croatia It is a spectacular country despite the fact that it is not very famous in terms of tourism, although it must be said that thanks to many of the Mediterranean cruises You can discover spectacular corners of this country. Still, I totally recommend a specific trip to this country to be able to visit incredible corners that have a lot to offer and that will surely impress you. A fascinating country from which I would like to highlight the Plitvice Lakes National Park, one of the eight that Croatia has and the most important in the entire country.

This wonderful place is between the villages of Lika and Kordun, between the mountains of Mala Kapela and Licka Pljesevica and along the road connecting Zagreb with Dalmatia, so it is not to be missed. Its main feature is that it has karst formations with many caves. It has 16 lakes of spectacular crystalline and greenish waters that have several waterfalls and waterfalls. Here is the highest waterfall in Croatia, the Veliki Slap, which is no less than 78 meters high, quite a sight to behold.

Also highlight the wonderful flora and fauna that you can find in the park, and it is that in the lakes you can see a great variety of fish and shellfish that you can fish in certain places and with a special permit. In addition, almost half of the park is made up of beech, pine and fir forests, in addition to countless species of original plants that you won't see anywhere else. As for the fauna, there live bears, otters, wolves, ferrets, squirrels, foxes or rabbits, in addition to more than 120 species of birds, of which about 70 are native. They say that the most spectacular animal to see there is the grizzly.

Finally, any date is good to visit, although the best is spring, since in summer it is very hot and in winter it is usually snowy, although also at this time it is spectacular to see how the waterfalls.
