The stunning landscape and the amazing nature of the Krka National Park make it a necessity for any Croatian travel plan. Located along the river Krk, the beautiful waterfalls of the park help attract so many visitors that the famous waterfall Skradinski buk introduced a limit of 10,000 visitors at once. As a result, Krka is the second most visited national park in Croatia - with the enchanting Plitvice Lakes National Park being the first. Although many people come to Krk just to swim in the magnificent Skradsinki buk waterfalls, there are a number of less visited places in the park that are worth your time.

- Magnificent Skradinski buk waterfalls. This series of 17 waterfalls stretches for a length of 800 meters, and its total fall is 45 meters. At the foot of the last waterfall it is also possible to swim in the cold, refreshing waters.
- Manojlovac Waterfall - With a total drop of about 60 meters, it is the highest waterfall in the Krka National Park. Its picturesque location in the middle of the canyon makes it one of the most beautiful places in the entire park.
