Paklenica

Paklenica National Park extends over 95 square kilometers, featuring two deep limestone canyons, extensive pine forests, and peaks reaching 1,757 meters above sea level.

The park received its designation in 1949, making it the second national park established in Croatia after Plitvice Lakes National Park.

Traditional stone houses in the protected hamlet of Marasovići display regional architecture, with the Ethno-house Marasović functioning as an exhibition space.

Visitors can purchase park tickets at both entrances, accessing educational trails, climbing routes, and the presentation center Podzemni grad Paklenice throughout the year.

The park contains 37 caves and 39 pits, including Manita peć cave at 570 meters elevation, which displays underground formations through guided tours.
