(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Skradinski Buk Waterfall
The Skradinski buk waterfall, the longest waterfall on the Krka River, is one of the best known natural beauties of Croatia. The cascades are composed of travertine barriers, islands, and lakes. They can be viewed throughout the entire year thanks to a network of paths and bridges that enable comfortable and safe walking. Several renovated water mills, rolling mills, and washing columns that for centuries have utilized the power of the river are also located at the Skradinski buk.
Skradin
The small town Skradin is situated at the entrance of the popular Krka National Park. The small Mediterranean town, with its charming narrow paved streets and passages, rich history, stunning scenery, and quality cuisine and wine, is another one of Croatia’s little gems. The surroundings of Skradin have been inhabited since the Neolithic period – the oldest settlement dates from the year 3500 B.C. The first data about the town of Skradin dates from the year 33 B.C. It is not hard to see why Microsoft founder and billionaire Bill Gates named it his favorite vacation place in Forbes magazine.
