Krka National Park
Nestled in the Šibenik-Knin County, Krka National Park spans 42 square miles (109 square kilometres) along the Krka River. Designated a national park in 1985, it is famed for its 17 travertine waterfalls and dramatic descent of 794 feet (238 metres) from the Dinaric Mountains to the Adriatic.
Skradinski Buk Falls
Depart the pier in Zadar for a scenic drive through the hinterland to the charming riverside town of Skradin. Here, board a boat for a tranquil cruise along the Krka River canyon, a prelude to the park’s breathtaking landscapes. Upon arrival, embark on a guided walk through lush greenery, alive with diverse birdlife and crystal-clear waters shaped by centuries of travertine formations.
The highlight of your visit is Skradinski Buk, a spectacular series of cascading waterfalls framed by wooden pathways and panoramic viewpoints. After your guided tour, enjoy leisure time to explore the trails or simply relax amid this natural wonder before returning by boat to Skradin for the drive back to Zadar.
