Burgeti Lakes

Reviewed By Brittany_11_10 - Los Angeles, United States

Located just across Kozjak Lake from Entrance 2, Burgeti Lakes will be the first lakes you come across in the Upper Lakes area of the park (if you're using Entrance 2 as your starting point). Beautiful clear (yet also blue--not sure about the chemistry on that one but I reckon it has something to do with algea?) water, as you'll see with all the lakes.

Gavanovac Lake

Reviewed By Brittany_11_10 - Los Angeles, United States

Another beauty, just like the rest of the lakes in Plitvice Jezera NP. Gavanovac Lake is in the Lower Lakes section, so it's most easily (quickly) accessed from Gate 1. Clean, clear, turquoise water through which you can see a fair few fish.

The Upper Lakes

Reviewed By benverghese - Chennai (Madras), India

We went to the park not really knowing what to expect. But soon after entering we looked down from the observation point and saw many cascades which were incredibly beautiful. Then we leasurely walked around the park for abou 4 hours. We could have spent more time here but there was an older couple with us. I would strongly recommend anyone going to Croatia to definitely find time to visit this beautiful park with many many cascades and water falls.

Veliki Prstavac

Reviewed By Brittany_11_10 - Los Angeles, United States

Gorgeous falls, like the rest in the park but maybe one of my faves. This area can get congested though, so best to visit early in an attempt to avoid the herds. Veliki Prstavac is in the Upper Lakes area, so most easily accessed by entering at Gate 2 and taking the short ferry across and walking up from there.

Slapovi Milke Trnine

Reviewed By dicksmith24 - Bradenton, United States

Must be 8 levels of falls. Beautiful water, clear and full of trout. Excellent hiking path for 3 miles. Use bus to top....start 1/2 way no need to go to top, same views but better on lower half unless you enjoy hiking. Boards are tough to see, watch your step.

Milanovac Lake

Reviewed By Brittany_11_10 - Los Angeles, United States

One of four lakes in the Lower Lakes section of the park, this one's as pretty as the rest, just a lot smaller than neighboring Gavanovac. Still worth seeing, and kind of a must see (as in, you would have to close your eyes to miss it) if you're walking the boardwalks in the whole Lower Lakes section.

Plitvice Lakes National Park

Reviewed By 488kaylah - London, United Kingdom

This place is as magnificent as the pictures suggest. I have never been anywhere quite like it. The water is literally turquoise. It is a lovely, well-maintained nature walk most of which is shaded by all the trees, which is good during the height of summer. Just be weary of the time of day you go due to the heat, and also take care to choose a route that suits your fitness level. You could spend literally all day here!
