NP Krka

National Park Krka occupies the region of Šibenik-Knin County with the size of 109km².  It encompasses the lower flow of the Krka River and the lower flow of the Čikola River. It was set aside as a National Park in 1985 due to natural value of the lakes and waterfalls in its region.

The Krka River is a natural crass phenomenon; it rises nearby Knin and due to crass surface its flow becomes a series of waterfalls and lakes mouthing into the Adriatic Sea near Šibenik. There are approximately 900 floral species, with several endemic species, while the fauna is dominated by numerous fish species and an endangered bat species. The area around the Krka River is a valuable ornithology reserve with over 200 bird species. It has eight tuff waterfalls and the most interesting one is Skradinski buk, the largest tuff barrier in Europe. When sightseeing around Krka do not miss Franciscan monastery with reach library on island Visovac, and Skradin. Skradin is a small town protected as a cultural heritage, hidden in a bay, a great resort for sailors. On the Krka River you can swim, row, and rent a motor boat. Rafting is limited to some routes on the rivers due to its extreme waterfalls. 

Accommodation may be found in nearby towns (Drniš, Skradin, Šibenik..), or in some of the camp or village households. There are also restaurants and cafes with full service and sport courts for recreation.
