Plitvice Lakes

The Plitvice Lakes is a national park in Croatia, situated in the Plitvice Lakes municipality, near the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The lakes are situated on the eponymous Plitvice plateau, between the mountains of Lička Plješevica, Mala Kapela and Medveđak. The sixteen lakes are separated into an upper and lower cluster formed by runoff from the mountains, descending from an altitude of 636 m to 503 m over a distance of some eight km, aligned in a south-north direction. The lakes collectively cover an area of about two km², with the water exiting from the lowest lake to form the Korana River.
