Boričevac

Boricevac is a rural settlement in the municipality of Donji Lapac in Lika-Senj County in northern Croatia. The settlement comprises several small hamlets scattered across elevated terrain in the region.

The settlement was more populated in the 1800s but experienced ongoing decline over many decades. This gradual exodus reflects broader rural migration patterns in the region during the past century.

Farming and animal husbandry remain central to daily life in this settlement, shaping how residents interact with the landscape. These long-standing practices define the rhythm and identity of the small community.

You'll need your own transportation to reach the settlement, as public buses do not run frequently through this area. Roads can be rough in winter, so it's wise to check local conditions before visiting.

In the early 1900s, the area was divided into four separate hamlets with distinct communities living alongside each other. This arrangement reveals the social complexity that once existed in this corner of the region.
