Sveti Rok, Mountain settlement in Lovinac, Croatia

The settlement covers 102.8 square kilometers across the southern Velebit mountain range, near peaks reaching 1757 meters above sea level.

Sveti Rok, documented since the mid-19th century under Austrian monarchy rule, formed part of the Croatian Military Frontier within the Likaner Regiment.

The Roman Catholic parish church stands at the center of the community, reflecting the predominant Croatian religious practices in the region.

The northern entrance of the Sveti Rok Tunnel and the A1 motorway provide essential transportation links between continental and coastal Croatia.

The settlement houses a water bottling facility that processes natural spring water from the surrounding mountain environment for distribution.
