Discovering architectural gems: Trogir and Split

Departure for Krka National Park, known for its numerous crystal-clear waterfalls. We begin with a short visit to the village of Skradin and its charming marina. We walk along the Krka River from Skradin to Skradinski Buk waterfalls, where we continue our hike across wooden bridges, discovering nature and the traditions of its inhabitants, millers and weavers. Lunch is served in the park opposite the falls, and we complete our loop with a short 20-minute boat trip on the river. Back in Skradin, we continue our journey to Krasno and check into our guesthouse (for three nights) near the northern Velebit National Park.

This morning, we're heading to Velebit National Park, part of the Dinaric Alps. On the Premužićeva trail, we're discovering a mosaic of landscapes: high mountains, fir and beech forests, and limestone formations. This karst region, renowned for its rich speleological heritage, also boasts exceptional biodiversity, with numerous endemic and protected species.

At the end of the hike, we reach Alan's refuge where our vehicle awaits us. Return to our accommodation in Krasno.

Today we're visiting Plitvice Lakes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site comprised of 16 crystal-clear lakes connected by numerous waterfalls and rapids. Within the park, a train takes us to Gornia Jereza, where we begin our hike. We walk along small paths and over wooden bridges, amidst the cascading lakes. A boat trip allows us to explore Gornia Jereza and Lake Kozjak. We enjoy a picnic lunch before completing this beautiful loop, passing by one of the highest waterfalls in Europe. In the late afternoon, we return to our guesthouse in Krasno.

Early morning transfer to Baške Oštarije, in the heart of the Velebit Nature Park. This mountain range, one of the largest and wildest in Croatia, belongs to the Dinaric Alps and stretches along the Adriatic coast. Designated a biosphere reserve by UNESCO, the park is home to exceptional flora and fauna, including brown bears, lynx, wolves, and a multitude of endemic plant species. We hike through pristine forests and alpine meadows, discovering karst landscapes where the rock, sculpted by erosion, forms unusual formations. Along the way, the peaks reveal breathtaking views of the Adriatic Sea. In the late afternoon, we drive to Starigrad, our new guesthouse by the sea, where we will stay for two nights.

Today, we're dedicating the day to Paklenica National Park, located south of the Velebit Mountains. We'll hike in the Velika Paklenica canyon, with its walls reaching up to 400 meters. This park, rich in flora and fauna, is known for its two deep canyons, caves, and limestone formations, and is a climber's paradise. We'll have a picnic lunch at the refuge and then continue to the abandoned village of Jurlina, a testament to rural life in the past. On the way back, a vehicle will be waiting for us at the park entrance to take us to our accommodation. Swimming is possible at the end of the day.

This day is dedicated to exploring the wild Krupa Canyon. After a transfer, we follow a trail alongside the river, enjoying unspoiled landscapes of rock formations, small pools, and lush vegetation. This region, still relatively untouched by mass tourism, offers a peaceful and authentic atmosphere. In the afternoon, we travel to the Split region and then check into our accommodation in the city for two nights. Dinner is at your leisure.

End of your stay at the hotel after breakfast. Transfer* to the airport at your leisure, according to your flight schedule.
