Walk the Lower Lakes, Waterfalls and Caves of Plitvice

We will begin near the map at the Entrance Gate, where the guide will give you a short briefing about the park's history and how it became a UNESCO site in 1979.
Then, we will walk down the canyon to visit the highest waterfall in Croatia. From here, you will be able to see four beautiful lakes interconnected with many waterfalls.
Each of these lakes - a total of 16 within the National Park - has a legend worth your attention, which the guide will narrate.
This park has various exciting species of wildlife, both vertebrate and invertebrate, which the guide will point out to you during the tour, especially along the way to two monuments that represent influential figures important to the history of Plitvice.
Moving forward, the guide will take you to see a few natural underground caves with interesting stories and a healthy population of bats inside.
The tour will wrap up with us marvelling at the largest lake in the area and its fascinating legend about treasure buried within its depths. The lake is named after a goat, yet another story the guide will delight you with before we say our final goodbyes.
