Paklenica National Park Nacionalni Park Paklenica

Paklenica National Park (Nacionalni Park Paklenica) is located in the Velebit Massif offering a wealth of outdoor opportunities for hikers, climbers, and other sporting pursuits. Velebit is a UNESCO biological reserve, which protects plant species and bird colonies as well as the mountains themselves. The exposed chalky white rock on the seemingly barren mountain tops contrasts sharply with the green forests lower down.

Must-see attractions nearby:
The Mala Paklenica (Small Paklenica) and the Velika Paklenica (Great Paklenica) Gorges, cut through the mountain range, producing high cliff walls. The park is home to a number of different bird species and apparently some wildlife like bears and wolves, but these are only rarely seen. The Paklenica National Park is at its best in the spring and fall. Summer is usually too hot for many activities and the park is particularly green and lush in the spring.

The park office is at Starigrad (StariGrad-Paklenica) and the entrance to the park is at Marasovici, just north of Starigrad.
