Plitvice National Park in Croatia is considered to be one of the most beautiful natural sights in Europe. Due to its natural beauty and significance, this system of 16 interlinked lakes and a large forest complex around it were set aside as a national park in 1949. In 1979 the park was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
The main attraction is obviously the hiking and walking in the area. Keep in mind that swimming is not allowed anywhere in the park.
Tip: If you arrive at the same time as a big group, walk one of the very well established routes in reverse. You'll probably be walking uphill for most of the trek, but you'll probably not see another person for a few hours.
In peak season, though expect a heavy crowd on a narrow trail regardless of the direction taken. There are some trails off the beaten path that seemed remote but need allow yourself extra time if you plan to do them. Else, just arrive early and beat the massively long lines.
