Visiting Plitvice Lakes

If you’re traveling from Zagreb to Split, a great stop to make on the route is Plitvice Lakes National Park. You can meet your driver at your hotel or private residence in Zagreb. The distance between Zagreb, Plitvice Lakes and Split is 450 km. After one hour of driving, we arrive at Rastoke village, (Optional stop, vignette to be paid at the spot). From there, we continue to Plitvice Lakes. The national park consists of 16 connected lakes, with each lake descending into the next one. The two largest lakes are Proscansko Jezero and Kozjak. At the end of the tour, we’ll take an electric boat. This private transfer is available for booking year-round. From March until the first snow of November, the roads to the Plitvice Lakes are passable. However, even in winter, Plitvice Lakes have their charm when they’re covered in deep ice and snow.

The Upper lakes (Gornja Jezera)

Join your local guide at the park (if you choose to have one), and begin your tour by taking a wonderful train ride around the Upper Lakes. Your licensed guide is a professional with over 10 years of experience. With our guide leading the way, we will explore the series of twelve interconnected lakes known as the Upper Lakes (Gornja Jezera). These lakes change color depending on the mineral composition of the water and the microorganisms living in them, resulting in an ever-evolving landscape. We will continue our journey through the park’s fascinating terrain until we reach the boat that will take us to the Lower Lakes (Donja Jezera).

Lower Lakes (Donja Jezera)

The Lower Plitvice Lakes system is situated in a canyon made of porous limestone. The highest rocks in the canyon rise about 40 meters. A travertine cascade can be seen between Kaluđerovac and Novakovica brod lake, which is the pathway for visitors starting from the NP Entrance 1. The trail leads down towards the Veliki Slap waterfall, and continues further upstream around the Lower Lakes in the direction of the Kozjak Lake. The highlight of the Plitvice tour is undoubtedly the Great Waterfall (Veliki Slap), which is also known as the tallest waterfall in Croatia.

Veliki Slap, The Great Waterfall

The Plitvice National Park boasts the highest waterfall, Veliki Slap or the Great Waterfall. It stands tall at a height of 78 meters, located at the very end of the park. Here, the river Plitvice roars and plunges in a single drop into the river Korana. During winter, the waterfall freezes over and transforms into a stunning giant ice sculpture that is definitely worth seeing.
