National Park Paklenica
Due to its unique natural basis, exceptional geomorphological shapes and magnificent forests, the area of Velika and Mala Paklenica was declared a national park in 1949. The main reason for declaring this area a national park was the protection of the best preserved and largest forest complex in Dalmatia.
Paklenica National Park covers an area of 95 km2, on the slopes of southern Velebit, and there are its highest peaks – Vaganski vrh (1757 meters above the sea) and Sveto Brdo (1753 meters above the sea). It includes the area of torrent flows of Velika and Mala Paklenica, and their recognizable canyons vertically incised into the southern slopes of Velebit, and the wider surrounding area. In a relatively small area, there is an exceptional wealth of geomorphological phenomena and shapes, diverse flora and fauna, attractive landscapes and untouched nature. The diversity of the living world is conditioned by climatic characteristics but also by the rich and diverse geological past.
Recognizable features of the Paklenica National Park are indigenous black pine forests and deep canyons with streams-torrents Velika and Mala Paklenica. The wider area of NP Paklenica is characterized by a rich and diverse cultural heritage.

National Park Plitvice Lakes
Plitvice Lakes are the oldest and largest national park in the Republic of Croatia.
With its exceptional natural beauty, this area has always attracted nature lovers, so on April 8, 1949, it was declared the first national park in Croatia. The process which forms travertine barriers and creates lakes, is a unique universal value for which Plitvice Lakes received international recognition on October 26, 1979, by being inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. In 1997, the area of the National Park was expanded and since then it has covered an area of slightly less than 300 km2.
The park is mostly covered with forest vegetation, a smaller part with grasslands, and the most interesting and most attractive part of the park for tourists – lakes, occupy only a little less than 1% of the Park area.
The lake system consists of 16 named and several smaller, cascading lakes. Due to the geological background and characteristic hydrogeological conditions, the lake system is divided into Upper and Lower Lakes.
