Our emphasis will be on UNESCO protected Velebit mountain range, the most beautiful in Croatia, which offers fantastic scenery and views.

From there we will continue over the Velebit range and descend down its heavily forested northern side to mountainous Lika region and proceed to visit beautiful Cerovačke Špilje (Cerovac Caves) (entrance to both caves is 15€ or 18€ in mid summer season).

Highly recommended!! - Our guide, Aleksandar, was very knowledgeable. The stops that we made were beautiful. The guide stopped at several scenic places for us to take beautiful photos. Climbing up the mountain trails, he went at our pace. We were able to stop and take photos and ask questions along the route. The trip to the caves was just over an hour and on the way we stopped at a natural spring and filled up our waterbottles. The caves were located on the hill above the parking lot, so it was a little hike up the hill to get to the entrances, but well worth the additional hike. We enjoyed the cool temperatures in the caves and the beautiful formations that the caves had in them. The river was beautiful. It has several small waterfalls in it and was breathtaking! Wonderful experience!! Highly recommended!!
