The stunning Plitvice Lakes National Park lies in the Lika region of Croatia. The park is surrounded by the mountains Plješevica, Mala Kapela, and Medveđak, which are part of the Dinaric Alps. The 16 blue-green Plitvice Lakes, which are separated by natural dams of travertine, are situated on the Plitvice plateau. Waterfalls connect the lakes, and the tallest waterfall is Veliki Slap at 70 meters (230 feet) tall. The Plitvice lakes area boasts a large variety of interesting and colorful flora and fauna. Visitors can enjoy walking and hiking the many pathways and trails, or exploring the lakes by boat. The park itself has 3 hotels and a campsite, otherwise visitors can find accommodation at any of the number of villages and cities nearby.

cccc…combo breaker
epic

i wanna go there!!
croatia isnt that far
haha
I just “Stumbled” to your site. What a joy, i actually visited these Lakes over 30 years ago…when it was still communist Yugoslavia. It was a majestic experience that I have not thought about in years.
Thanks you so much for bringing back wonderful memories!
it’s amazing. it’s on earth. wish I could be there someday.
These are truly amazing pictures. Indeed nature has given us lots to savour and be proud about. Let’s keep this world green.
The real question is……….can you swim in it?
Nice place, shame about the Croatians. Fascist bastards.
have been there:))) really amazing!
In nature it is even more beautiful…
@Guy
No , it is forbiten. They keep it clean and out of people hands. That is why yoz can see fishes and other-watter-stuffs in huge number too.
@Mitsonen
You should be ashamed. Croatia and other Balkan countries have many good sights to visit, but they don t use aggressive marketing to atract tourists, which is good part :)
Yes, indeed, nature as a fairy tale. I looked at the pictures and publish as if they had just arrived there from yesterday. I advise everyone to visit, there kakayato magic in this place
i have never seen waterfalls before
photoshop’d
Its incredible, best place ever, I will go takes what it takes.
@mark
You obviously know nothing about photography, they used a slower shutter speed.
Really, that’s the most wonderful place have ever seen! I love it, that’s real heaven!
it’s very very beautiful,i want to live there for ever if i can.
That’s not in Croatia, that’s Middle Earth.
That’s middle earth!
A love a girl from there. Stunning places, special people.
I think I see Neytiri!
I’ve been there while on a motorbiking trip. It’s really unbelievable once you’re there. You can walk around the park for a whole day and not see the same thing twice.
Lovely pictures
The Plitvice Lakes incident of March 1991 (known in Croatian as “Plitvice Bloody Easter”) was an incident at the beginning of the Croatian War of Independence. It was a clash between heavily armed Croatian policemen and special police (the Croatian army was still being formed and organized at that time), the forces aiming to create the independent Republic of Croatia, and lightly armed Serbs, supported by Belgrade and the Yugoslav People’s Army. A 22 year old Josip Jović from Aržani, Croatia, the first victim of the Homeland War, was killed in an action against Serbian terrorists on Plitvice. Today, it’s a symbol of the Croatian fight for freedom and homeland and contains a memorial of the first Croatian man to fall in a battle for his homeland in the war.
Amazing Place…
Nature is wonderful. Freedom to green. Go Green !!!
I saw a documentary a couple of years ago it is really an awesome place.
This is indeed one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen and this si coming from someone who routinely watches the Planet Earth Blu Ray. Would be epic if we could get wallpapers of these pictures especially the first one.
of course its photoshoped mark… you think the film photographer of days gone by just poped on down to the wallmart and dropped his film off thinking “hm, we’ll see what happens”… no.
They spent hours toiling away in a dark room, trying to get the print just the way they wanted… the process today has simply been digitized, the personal computer is the digital dark room.. welcome to the 21st century
Beautiful photography.
Dude, I rule!
I must visit there someday. 10+ years ago i had an offer to work in Croatia, but it was too soon after the war so I went to the Czech Republic.
awesome, ill go there after i go to RORAIMA! you should all check it out greatest place on earth!
that is so beautiful. i would love to visit and take some pictures. i would also want to swim in it :] thanks for showing these lovely pictures of art.
Beautiful!!!
For all you swimmers you should visit another croatian national park, google for “waterfalls of krka” it’s not far away from plitvice lakes. :)
Pozdrav svima ;)
I wanna go
Absolutely beautiful! I want to go there sometime.
Lol… people are so dumb… Photoshop meme win.
Wow! This is sooooo cool, i love it!! =)
I’m an awesome person and so is my best friend
I live in Croatia,and I have to say,I’ve been there couple of times and it is absolutely fantastic,and for all of you who think that it’s photoshoped you don’t know what you are saying,everything looks a bit different on a photo,so don’t judge but come and see for yourself.
Big kiss from Cro :))))
Incredible gift! Thanks to whomever sent it in! Peace-R
awesome photographs! and very nice place, how I wish I could get there some time. great site to take pictures!
I’m going to Croatia for my hols this year, will have to add this to my sightseeing plans……
Really beautiful places. Should become everyone’s goal to go there…

Really amaging Beautiful place.Thank’s for your details.
wow….thats really awesome
Woah. Totally amazing!
That’s soooooo
DOPE
stumbled upon these pictures.
amaziiiing, the water looks surreal.
absolutely beautiful :)
i have been here, i stop into croatia before driving into bosnia ever summer i go visit my family in bosnia! i always take a day or two to stop here!!
a must see!!
its even more beautiful then the pictures!!
The pictures don’t do this place justice. I went there in 1987, following my parents, and had no idea what it was. I’ve traveled a lot and this is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
It must be ball busting cold water if no one is swimming in those awesome pools.
Lovely! I did travel to Croatia many years ago, but never went to that park… great shots!
[...] I hope these pictures and the next post’s music video can get some good vibes going for your week. LINK [...]
Were these pictures taken this month? When is the best time to visit Croatia?
Been there as well. It’s very beautifull!
As you can see on my pictures as well.

To everyone who thinks this is photoshoped – it is not. Some of the pictures are taken with slow shutter speed but other then that these are 100% genuine.
WOW, what a stunning place and amazing photos!
what an amazing place i ever see…
I didn’t know Croatia had this much beauty
Wow. Really Beautiful Scenery. Love to be there.
AMAZING!!!…..that man can create so much evil, in such a beautiful place!?
the terrorists dont know about this place?
These places look so peaceful and serene. Waterfalls are natures stress reducers.
Hrvatska! It is so beautiful. The entire country is really just a stunning experience. Great people, food, sights and culture.
samo neznalica ili pravi fasist poput tebe moze reci da su hrvati fasisti.
The waterfalls are the soul of the planet.
This is so beautiful! Are you able to swim in the pools? Why is it people don’t appreciate the world’s beauty enough?
It takes a long time to Croatian people to unmine this place from bombs that Serbians put there during the war.
And no :D :D :D the water isn’t cold, it is perfect to swim, but it’s forbid, and that way is better. As Saff said, you can go swim in “Krka”, where is really beautiful too.
Pozdrav!
P
Just beautiful!!!
Pure paradise!!!
My dream is to visit there someday soon!!!
Yep I’m going there…someday ;)
just great, I live there! :P

Amazing photographs. Would love to visit these places someday.
I’d love to live near there, be able to wander over for a picnic and a quick swim in the summer time. If it’s closed to these activities, that’s understandable, but unfortunate at the same time. Still, a girl can dream…
Really wonderfull place, i really want to visit all these place.
Amazing photos that make me want to relax on the shores of an alpine lake.
Been there, it is as marvellous as in the pictures! Croatia has many beautiful spots, but this is one of it’s greatest wonders.
Heaps of leaps of beauty. Yet another must see place. Super stunning.
I was on Plitvice lakes this winter. The waterfalls were frozen just like on the picture. Actually, I was on photomaraton. Many photographers find Plitvice inspiring, so you must admit that there is no Photoshop who can create this beauty !
That week I was feeling like a snow queen. So beautiful nature, woods, snow, delicious food and fascinating legends about lakes. Local people are so kind and there is some ski center too.
So perfect and so close to coast. You must visit this country. Croatia is full of surprises !!

cool, stumbled upon this and i’ve been there 2 years ago in the summer :D The water is so clear! And the hotel nearby is also a old communist era building, which stands in quite a nice contrast with the rest of the area oh and it has a good restaurant. Go when you have the chance!
Please…..NO BODY try to DESTROY this AMAZING NATURE !
then only we can feel those more further.TRY to PROTECT our NATURE…
Hey, i like there, i think i can go there for a holiday. I hope there will stay as in the photos till i will go.
These places really seems very beautiful.
Croatia – what a great country
http://www.pure.hr
eh, I’ve seen better. I mean come on , it’s not like any of you have never seen flowing water or trees before. I bet everyone jumps up and down at a park when it starts to rain……. and then you take a hundred pictures , make a blog and spend a good time of your life telling everyone how amazing that experience was. to answer those who may be wondering, YES! I have nothing better to do but write a completely pointless comment for these awesome pictures.
I’ve been there. It’s one of the best places on earth!!!
