Multi-activity tour of Croatian rivers, lakes and countryside 
8 days/7 nights Huck Finn Adventure Travel program 2010

The highlights of this multi-activity adventure package include canoeing, hiking and biking in the area around the Plitvice Lakes National Park, an area of breathtaking views and stunning scenery.  The park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, plays host to 16 lakes, numerous waterfalls fed by both the Black and White Rivers, and seemingly endless forests. The itinerary will also take you on a journey down the Mreznica, Zrmanja and Krupa rivers by kayak with an option to raft on either the Dobra or Una River, along the border between Croatia and Bosnia.

Accommodation is provided by the families of Korana Village, a small romantic place hidden away in a valley surrounding both sides of the river in Plitvice National Park. The houses are small, traditional dwellings with simple rooms in an idyllic setting. The peaceful atmosphere makes for an ideal base from which to explore the surrounding area. The combination of activity, scenery and cultural immersion makes this journey a unique and unforgettable experience.


ITINERARY

Day 1: (Saturday) Leaving Zagreb or Zadar airport behind, we make our way to Korana Village in Plitvice Lakes National Park. After settling into your accommodations, join other group members for an informal welcome drink and evening snack by the river.

 


Day 2: Today we cycle through forests, between hills and across green fields in the Croatian countryside. Our road will lead us to the Barać caves for a guided underground tour. After visiting the caves, we’ll have a picnic lunch and time to relax in a local park. In the afternoon we bike back to Korana Village in time to enjoy a traditional Croatian evening meal.  (Please note that cycling the entire route may be too difficult for small children).


Day 3: Embark on a kayaking expedition down the Mreznica River. The journey meanders through a spectacular landscape of forests, open meadows and travertine waterfalls. The calm, clear pools provide plenty of opportunities to cool off with a swim. Later in the day, we will explore the numerous streams and mills of Rastoke on foot.


Day 4: Expedition into the canyon and waterfalls of the upper Mreznica, This is the most beautiful part of the river, where the water temperature in summer can reach 25 degrees Celsius. We travel down a deep, narrow canyon and bypass cascading waterfalls - up to 10 meters high.


Day 5: We head south for canoeing down the magnificent wild-west-like canyons of the Zrmanja and Krupa Rivers. Enjoy easy rapids, swimming in crystal clear waters and a shower under waterfalls.


DDay 6: A day spent in the Plitvice Lakes National Park, hiking around 16 emerald green and opal blue lakes, passing along numerous waterfalls and caves. Later in the afternoon you can enjoy taking a swim in warm water just in front of your house.
