Spectacular foaming waterfalls and 16 turquoise lakes make Plitvice Lakes National Park the most popular natural attraction in Croatia. The UNESCO world heritage site comprises a verdant maze of paths, woods and meadows which are home to a number of wildlife species, including the European brown bear, wolf, lynx, wild cat and over 120 species of birds, such as eagles, owls and heather cock. If you are lucky enough, you might even catch a glimpse of them.

Una National Park was established as recently as 2008, making it the youngest of the three national parks in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Its Centrepiece, the impressive Štrbački Buk, is Western Bosnia’s finest set of waterfalls, and home to some of the best white water rafting in Europe.
