Plitvice Lakes National Park

Plitvice Lakes National Park is the oldest national park in 

Southeast Europe and the largest national park in Croatia.

The national park was founded in 1949 and is situated in the 

mountainous karst area of central Croatia, at the border to

Bosnia and Herzegovina. The important north-south road connection,

 which passes through the national park area,

 connects the Croatian inland with the Adriatic coastal region.
