Travel video about destination Plitvička Jezera in Croatia.
Hidden within the densely wooded mountain region of Mala Kapela is Croatia’s most famous natural landmark, the Plitvička Jezera Nature Park, a land of cascading lakes. It is a well-protected natural environment which developed in travertin synclines, a world of water and exceptional plant life. Caves such as the Šupljara Cave, situated within a ravine at Lower Lake were created many thousands of years ago. Erosion and corrosion in the karst caused cracks in the limestone layer and gradually carved out its wide limestone ravine. For seven kilometres sixteen lakes have formed within a gorge, similar to the links of a chain, and connected by various cascades and waterfalls. It is a strange area, full of mystique and for centuries, long forgotten, a no-man's-land of wonderful nature. There are the Upper and Lower Lakes. They differ not only in their location but particularly in their geological features. The Upper Lakes are located on a Dolomit base which forms the typical features of stream dolines and wooded subsidence whereas, in contrast, the Lower Lakes are situated within rocky limestone. Kozjak Lake is more than two kilometres long and stretches in a north-south direction framed by dense forests which extend to the shores of the lake. There are no footpaths, only tranquil boat trips that take travellers to the Lower Lakes. Depending on the quantity of available water, the white foam of the magnificent Veliki Slap Waterfall and its rushing waters produces a swirling mist created by millions of water droplets as onlookers enjoy the soothing drizzle. A constantly changing landscape, the Plitvice Lakes are a true miracle of nature.
