Rastoke

The settlement stands at the meeting point of Slunjčica and Korana rivers, featuring multiple waterfalls and traditional wooden houses along the water channels.

The settlement achieved its peak development during the late 19th century with 22 watermills, 4 fulling mills, and 28 residential buildings serving the local community.

Traditional milling methods remain active in Rastoke, where water-powered mechanisms grind grains using techniques passed through multiple generations of mill operators.

The location offers accommodations in traditional houses, local restaurants serving regional dishes, and access to hiking trails along the waterfall system.

Residents historically used wooden barrels with holes, called košalo, placed in the rushing water as natural washing machines for cleaning clothes.
