Krka National Park protects the Krka river and its travertine waterfalls, just 15 km from Šibenik. Its main attraction is Skradinski buk, a series of cascades and turquoise pools explored on wooden boardwalks through lush vegetation.
What the tour looks like
- Pickup in Šibenik and transfer to Skradin or the Lozovac entrance.
- River boat from Skradin up to the falls (during the park’s boat season).
- Guided walk of about 2 hours on the Skradinski buk trail, with traditional watermills and viewpoints.
- Free time and return to Šibenik.
Important
Since 2021 swimming is not allowed at the Krka waterfalls to protect the ecosystem. The park entrance is paid at the official rate, which varies by season and is higher in summer.
Who it is for
All ages. The trail is easy, with a few steps. Ideal as a shore day during a sailing week, since Skradin is a stop on the route.
What to bring
- Comfortable shoes, water and a hat.
- A camera: it is one of the most photogenic places in Croatia.
Best time to go
May to September. May and June bring more water and fewer visitors; in July and August, go early in the morning to avoid the crowds at the boardwalks.
