Apartments Plitvice (Plitvice Lakes)

If you are looking for spectacular natural beauty, there are few places in Europe which can match the amazing Plitvice Lakes, which are situated between Zagreb and Split. Despite their less than perfect location, Plitvice Lakes attract more than a million tourists every year, and they have deservedly been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979.

Not only is Plitvice the largest national park, but it is also the oldest in South-East Europe, having been established in 1949, and the park offers an outstanding natural experience of lakes and waterfalls, combined with unique flora and fauna. Far from being a summer attraction like the beaches of Dalmatia, Plitvice is open all year, and the four distinctive seasons offer four very different impressions of Mother Nature at her most attractive. While the lush green surroundings of summer might be the most popular due to the time of year, the frozen lakes and snow-covered forest make winter arguably the most beautiful.

Plitvice Lakes are located directly on the old road from Split to Zagreb, and it is possible to visit them by bus on regular routes, while tourist agencies in all the big cities in Croatia will offer day tours to the lakes. The lakes are also clearly signposted from the Zagreb – Split motorway.

The lakes are not free to visit, but the 180 kuna entrance fee (about 23 €) is money well spent for one of the premier natural attractions in Europe.
