 Drive to Sibenik
hinterland to the famous Krka Waterfalls. Located in the lovely
Krka national park, the falls cascade over 17 natural barriers.
This permanent play of the sun and water creates a breathtaking
scenery.
The Krka National Park was proclaimed a national park in
1985; it is the seventh national park in Croatia. It is located
in the ibenik and Knin county, and occupies an area of 111 km2
along the course of the Krka River, two kilometres downstream from
Knin to Skradin, and the lower course of the Cikola.
The travertine,
limestone sedimented from water, which builds the travertine curtains,
sills, beards and other geomorphological forms, is the fundamental
phenomenon and principal feature of the National Park. The falls
are a biodynamic creation, the living travertine constantly growing
today as well, through the sedimentation process.
