Plitvice Lakes are the oldest, largest, and most visited national park in the Republic of Croatia. The park spans two counties—Lika-Senj (90.7%) and Karlovac (9.3%). It was designated as a national park on April 8, 1949. The park represents a forested, mountainous area that features 16 lakes of various sizes. These lakes are interconnected by cascades and waterfalls and receive water from various streams and creeks. The rock barriers, which have formed over tens of thousands of years, are also one of the park’s defining characteristics.
Within the park, there is a great biodiversity; many different animals have found their sanctuary there. Consequently, the rock barriers have become a habitat for moss and other microscopic forms of life.
Water comprises only 1% of the park, yet it is one of its most fascinating elements. In addition to its water and forests, the Plitvice Lakes area also features various caves.
