Aschi "Freestone"'s photos

On the way north a view to a special river The Zrmanja a karst river in the south of Croatia. The Zrmanja flows through a karst area. Zrmanja and other karst rivers are characterised by their clear, emerald green water. The river and its surroundings have been the scene of a number of films: Winnetou 1, Winnetou 3, The Treasure in Silver Lake, Old Surehand, Winnetou and Old Shatterhand in the Valley of Death, Jingih's Khan, The Secret Treasure of Troy

an overview and last view from the lowest point of the cascades of the Skradinski buk, before we turn to the next Ettapenziel

an overview and last view from the lowest point of the cascades of the Skradinski buk, before we turn to the next Ettapenziel Skradinski buk is the longest travertine barrier on the Krka River. The growth of travertine barriers ( see here: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travertin ) at Skradinski buk was caused by the union of the water of the river Krka with the lower stream of the river Čikola at Roški slap and created one of the most unusual and beautiful landscapes of the Krka National Park.

now lowest level of Skradinski buk was reached Skradinski buk is the most attractive part of the park. at the lowest level there is a large natural pool with high waterfalls and cascades which can also be used as a pool.

here we are again one step lower at the cascades of the Skradinski buk

The cascades at Skradinski Buk a step lower

The top cascades at Skradinski Buk In fact, the Krka Waterfalls (Skradinski Buk) are not a waterfall, but a series of cascades in quick succession.

The river Krka still looks very idyllic here, but this will change soon. The Krka has a length of 72.5 km, it rises 3.5 km northeast of the town of Knin at the foot of the Dinarid Mountains and flows into the sea at Šibenik. The upper 49 km are fresh water, the lower 23.5 km are brackish water. The majority of the river is located in the Krka National Park and is therefore protected.

The boat trip is about to end and we will use our bikes again.

the monastery is well camouflaged behind a lot of green plants and trees

It is the monastery island Krka, the monastery accommodates orthodox monks and additionally emphasizes the already peaceful and contemplative atmosphere of the place.

we're approaching a small island in the middle of the river.

The rock barrier lies behind us

somewhere through this rock barrier goes the river

if the chugging of the boat would not be ......... here is the peace itself at home

We leave Roški Slap by boat and enjoy the wonderful landscape from the river.

Good morning! Good morning! What Robinson already knew... Friday is your friend! Come well into your well-deserved weekend! Wish you all a nice weekend

Roški Slap The Roški Slap waterfalls are one of the most beautiful places in the National Park, although the majority of visitors to the Krka National Park do not even know that it exists and what it has to offer.
