More than the National Park: why Plitvice is an ideal holiday destination
Camping Plitvice is the base from which you can explore the nature, activities and hidden beauties of the Plitvice area. The sea is not the only view that recharges your batteries. Continental holidays, too, are becoming the new luxury. Most people may associate the Plitvice area with the National Park or with a stopover on the way to the sea – but it is more than that.

You need more than one day for Plitvice, take our word for it. And it is Camping Plitvice that is the perfect base for exploring nature, activities and a holiday without the crowds. And of course, for plenty of refreshing swims. Here you can swim in two pools, private jacuzzis or drive in just a few minutes to the bathing spots on the Korana river near Selište Drežničko and Drežnik Grad, or on the Mrežnica river near Slunj, and enjoy one of the most beautiful river bathing spots in continental Croatia. And one more thing. At the seaside we often look for shade – here we have it in abundance. The best holiday, one that recharges your batteries better than the sea, starts right here, at our base. And it lasts several days!
More than the National Park: why Plitvice is a destination for a holiday of several days
More and more travellers are choosing inland Croatia precisely because of what a modern holiday means today – fewer crowds, more space, fresher air and the feeling that you finally don’t have to rush anywhere. Instead of overhyped destinations, there is growing interest in non-viral locations, nature-immersive trips and digital detox holidays.
A visit to the National Park is just the start of the story. Camping Plitvice is the starting point for exploring the whole Plitvice area. The concierge service will help you find excursions, outdoor activities and authentic places that you might not discover on your own. After a day full of experiences, you return to the peace beneath the treetops, to modern mobile homes and a five-star campsite that combines comfort and nature. Continental tourism here is not for show, but for experiencing.
Why doesn’t an active holiday have to be tiring?
An active holiday doesn’t mean pushing your limits, but moving in a way that does your body good. Walks along forest trails, rides on electric bikes, canoeing, exploring Baraćeve špilje or flying by zipline over the Korana river canyon are just some of the experiences that await you. And between activities there is always enough time for what matters most – rest. The privacy of modern mobile homes, the sound of the forest, the babbling of water, birdsong and the breeze through the treetops create a natural soundscape that makes it easier to relax here. When you feel like a bit more of a social atmosphere, just stroll to the pool, the pool bar or the restaurant, where the campsite organises various programmes for guests in summer.
Why is Camping Plitvice a better choice than a seaside holiday?
The air is cleaner, the nights more pleasant and sleep deeper – thanks to the forest, the microclimate and the almost complete absence of noise and light pollution. At Camping Plitvice you don’t have to give up any of the feelings you associate with summer. You can still swim every day, you will still spend most of the day outdoors, enjoying the sun and long evenings. The difference is that here you get something more. More pleasant temperatures thanks to the forest setting and natural microclimate. More shade, more space and fewer crowds. Cooler nights that let you get a really good night’s sleep. Clean air, a slower pace and the feeling of having escaped the summer overload.
