About Plitvice Lakes National Park

Plitvice Lakes is Croatia’s oldest and most famous national park, known for its 16 terraced lakes linked by more than 90 waterfalls. What makes it truly unique is how the lakes are constantly changing. Here, natural limestone barriers grow and reshape the waterfalls over time, meaning the landscape never looks exactly the same from year to year.

Once you arrive, you’ll explore the park independently, following a network of wooden boardwalks that wind directly over turquoise water, past cascades, and through forested areas. The water colors shift throughout the day from emerald green to deep blue depending on sunlight and mineral content, making it one of the most photographed places in the country.

What to bring

Wear sturdy, comfortable footwear, as exploring Plitvice Lakes involves extended walks over wooden paths and natural terrain.

Dress for changing conditions and bring a light jacket or rain layer, especially outside peak summer months.

Have cash or a credit/debit card available for park entry tickets, refreshments, or optional boat rides.

Carry drinking water and small snacks if you plan to spend several hours exploring on your own.

Bring a charged phone or camera to help with navigation and to capture the park’s scenery.

What’s not allowed

Swimming or entering the lakes and waterfalls is not permitted in order to preserve the natural environment.

Visitors must stay on designated walkways; straying off marked paths or littering can lead to penalties.

Feeding animals within the national park is not allowed.

The use of large drones or professional recording equipment may require prior authorization.
