If you adore islands, you will be thrilled with the miraculous formation of the 140 plus islands which make up Kornati National Park. Here, in the middle of this magical place, you can find a treasure trove of natural beauty. The untamed beauty of nature at Velebit mountain, the inspiration for many Croatian myths and legends, will soothe you with its peaceful repose. At Paklenica National Park, however, you find yourself pumped up with adrenalin. If your heart is drawn to the sublime charm of lakes, you’ll find in close proximity to Biograd a sweet-water lake and bird reservation at the Lake Vrana Nature Reserve. We recommend that you investigate Telaščica Nature Reserve which also conceals a secret, salt water lake called “Mir” (meaning “Peace”), with medicinal properties as well as world famous Plitvica Lakes National Park laden with more than 16 turquoise lakes.
