When staying in the Zadar region, a visit to the Krka national park is also highly recommended! The Krka waterfalls are close to Šibenik, which is about 1 hour and 15 minutes by car. It takes some time to get there but the national park is definitely worth a visit. In total there are 7 waterfalls in the park that you can visit, these have a total height of 242 metres. If you go to the Krka waterfalls in the summer, we advise you to go in time, because the park has a maximum number of visitors who can be in the park at the same time. By going in time you avoid waiting for a long time or even not being able to enter the park.
