What should you expect on a private transfer from Zagreb to Zadar with Plitvice Lakes?

Visiting Plitvice Lakes

Your adventure will begin with meeting your driver at your hotel or private accommodation in Zagreb. After a one-hour drive, we will reach Rastoke, (Optional stop, vignette to be paid at the spot). We will make a short stop for coffee before continuing our journey to Plitvice Lakes. Once we arrive, your driver will leave you at the park entrance. If you choose to have a local guide, you will meet them here for your 3-4 hour adventure. You will have plenty of time for all activities before we continue our trip to Zadar. This private transfer is available for booking year-round, except during the winter months when the roads to the Plitvice Lakes may be impassable due to snow. Nonetheless, winter has its charm, and the drive to Zadar will take you through the beautiful Dalmatian countryside.

The Upper lakes (Gornja Jezera)

Meet your local guide in the park (if you choose to have one) and start with a pleasant train ride around the Upper Lakes. Your licensed guide is a professional with more than 10 years of experience. With our guide in the lead, we start with our tour by exploring the series of twelve interconnected lakes called the Upper Lakes (Gornja Jezera). The lakes also change color depending on the mineral composition of the water and the microorganisms living in them. This process ensures that the Plitvice Lakes are continually evolving. We’ll continue making our way through the fascinating landscape of the park until we reach the boat that will transport us to the Lower Lakes (Donja Jezera).

Lower Lakes (Donja Jezera)

The Lower Plitvice Lakes system is formed in the canyon constructed of permeable limestone. The highest rocks in the canyon are about 40 meters. The travertine cascade formed between Kaluđerovac and Novakovica brod lake is the visitors’ path leading down from the NP Entrance 1 towards the Veliki Slap waterfall and then further on around the Lower Lakes upstream in the direction of the Kozjak Lake. The climax of the Plitvice tour is undoubtedly the Great Waterfall (Veliki Slap), also known as the tallest waterfall in Croatia.

Veliki Slap, The Great Waterfall

Finally, the highest waterfall in the Plitvice National Park is Veliki Slap – the Great Waterfall. Witness the magnificence of the 78 meters situated at the very end of the National Park. The place where the river Plitvice thunders, in a single drop in the river Korana. The waterfall gets completely frozen in the winter, forming a lovely giant ice sculpture – a must-see!
