Walking Path Along the Krka River

The walking path along the Krka River in Skradin offers visitors a peaceful and scenic introduction to one of Croatia’s most celebrated natural wonders. Beginning in the charming riverside town of Skradin, the path meanders through lush landscapes that are part of Krka National Park, a protected area renowned for its waterfalls, diverse flora, and vibrant ecosystems. The trail is well-maintained and accessible, making it suitable for walkers of all ages and abilities.

As you stroll along the riverbank, you’re treated to views of emerald-green waters, tranquil pools, and the gentle sounds of flowing water. The path is especially popular for its proximity to the famous Krka Waterfalls, where boardwalks and wooden bridges take you close to the cascades and through tiny islands in the river. The area is rich in plant life, including fragrant lavender that attracts butterflies and bees, adding to the sensory experience.

Along the way, you may encounter historical sites, such as Roman ruins and the distant silhouette of Visovac Island with its Franciscan Monastery, which highlight the region’s cultural heritage. The path is a favorite for both leisurely walks and photography, offering countless opportunities to pause and enjoy the natural beauty.

There are no specific admission fees for the riverside path in Skradin itself, though entry to Krka National Park is ticketed. The walk is a relaxing way to start or end a visit to the park, blending nature, history, and the serene atmosphere of the Krka River.
