Paklenica National Park Tour: Velika Paklenica canyon
1 day
About this activity
The group meets at the entrance of Paklenica National park.
The tour begins in Velika Paklenica canyon,european and world famous place for rock climbing and mountaineering. This tour passes the bottom of the canyon, the path that has been used during history for trafficking with Lika situated on the opposite side of Velebit. The trail meanders by the stream and besides ascent at the beginning, it is almost flat all the way to the mountain hut. On the way you will be able to try fresh and clean water from the stream and ejoy the sights of untouched nature.
Upon arrival in a 100 years old mountain hut a guest gets a warm welcome by an always pleasant and cheerful host awaiting him with a homemade brandy, tea and juice made of Velebit herbs as well as honey. It is possible to have a meal at the mountain hut, a traditional dish called âPekaâ, baked under âthe bellâ on fire. You can choose more options: barbecue, bean, omelette or cooked vegetable.Â
The break is followed by a visit to an area of houses built into the rock joints. After that unusual sight we head back towards the beginning of the canyon.
