Near the islands of Ugljan
and Pasman
, are situated many national parks of Republic Croatia
|
"Paklenica"
National park
Paklenica lies on
the south, the sea-facing side of the Velebit range. It was
proclaimed a national park not long after Plitvice, also in
1949, but here the tradition of preservation has a somewhat
longer history.
Paklenica along with a number of other areas was designated
a nati-onal park in 1928 but, unforunately, on the a basis
of an inadequate law with only temporary validity. Paklenica
is only a small part of Croatia's most interesting mountain
range of Velebit, but it is one of
the most distinctive and richest in natural beauty and interest.

"Krka
National park " :
Dalmatia has numerous karst
"beauties", rivers that flow into the sea from the
mountain hinterland, but the Krka has the greatest natural
and scenic importance. A deep gorge and seven systems of travertine
or tufa cascades form flowing lakes leaving no one indifferent,
and experts talk about the great scientific value of the river
and its surroundings.

National park

Adriatic Sea, about 15 Nm to the west from Sibenik town, 7
Nm to the southwest from Murter, or 15 Nm to the south from
Zadar town, there is amazing group of islands, islets and
reefs (about 150 in total) named Kornati archipelago. Beauty
and singularity of the archipelago moved authorities in 1980
to proclaim a bigger part of that area national park. Since
