About Krka National Park
Krka National Park protects the river’s limestone canyon and its travertine waterfalls, home to many plants found nowhere else. Boardwalks loop around Skradinski buk, the most famous of the falls, through spray and green shade, while boats run to the island monastery of Visovac and on towards Roški slap. Swimming at the falls has been banned since 2021, so come to walk and look. Boats from Skradin are a lovely way to arrive, though they run only in season, so check the timetable before you travel.
