Plitvice Lakes National Park is the oldest national park in Southeast Europe and the largest national park in Croatia.
Plitvice National Park in Croatia is considered to be one of the most beautiful natural sights in Europe. Due to its natural beauty and significance, this system of 16 interlinked lakes and a large forest complex around it were set aside as a national park in 1949. In 1979 the park was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
The Plitvice Lakes National Park is the most popular tourist attraction in Croatia. It is also considered to be one of the most beautiful natural sights in Europe. The Plitvice Lakes National Park is located in the mountainous area of Like, roughly halfway between capital city Zagreb and Zadar on the coast.
The Plitvice Lakes National Park covers a total area of 300 square kilometers. The Plitvice Lakes can be divided up into 16 individual lakes, all of which flow into the Korana River. The sixteen lakes are separated into an upper and lower cluster formed by runoff from the mountains, descending from an altitude of 636 meters to 503 meters over a distance of some eight kilometers. The lakes collectively cover an area of about two square kilometers.
