Biogradska Gora National Park

Visiting

The car park by the lake fills up and gets chaotic through the summer. The path round the water has signboards on the forest's plants and animals. Rowing boats with life jackets and kayaks go out from the hut by the jetty, a good choice for children too small for the full loop.

Back from the shore, the wooden visitor centre takes ten minutes, and a lookout tower twenty-one metres high stands beside it, with a restaurant near the lake. Marked trails leave from here for the Bendovac viewpoint and the Bjelasica ridges. Junctions away from the main area are not always obvious, so carry an offline map.
