About this experience

Visiting Krka Waterfalls is an unforgettable experience, offering a stunning blend of natural beauty, tranquil landscapes, and a rich cultural backdrop. Krka National Park is renowned for its breathtaking waterfalls, lush greenery, and crystal-clear river. As you enter the park, you’re immediately struck by the sight of cascading waterfalls and the soothing sounds of rushing water, creating an atmosphere of peace and awe. The park is well-maintained with walking trails, wooden bridges, and viewpoints that allow visitors to get up close to the falls, making it easy to immerse yourself in the raw beauty of the surroundings. One of the most iconic spots within Krka is Skradinski Buk, a series of large waterfalls that form a stunning cascade, surrounded by vibrant flora and fauna. The sight of water tumbling down into turquoise pools below is mesmerizing. Following this we will meet a local winemaker and sample some of the region's best wines and olive oils.
