Krka, River system in Šibenik-Knin County, Croatia
The Krka River extends through limestone formations, creating seven major waterfalls across its 72.5-kilometer course from the Dinara mountains to the Adriatic Sea.
Archaeological discoveries along the Krka riverbanks reveal continuous human settlements dating from the Neolithic period through Roman times to medieval Croatian settlements.
The river contains preserved water mills, demonstrating traditional grain processing methods that sustained local communities for centuries in Dalmatia.
Visitors can access the river through multiple entry points, with the main gates located in Lozovac and Skradin, offering parking facilities and boat connections.
The Krka River maintains a constant temperature between 5 and 19 degrees Celsius throughout the year due to its groundwater sources and limestone filtration.
