Swimming banned at one of Croatia’s most beautiful pools Posted by Anita Froneman on 20 January 2020 Tags:Croatia, Krka National Park Management at Krka National Park, a popular tourist attraction in Croatia announced that swimming in the park will be banned, expressing concern about the conservation of resources as the main reason for the ban. ‘The overall viability of the Krka River basin and its wildlife rests on the development of travertine barriers, so preserving the travertine deposition process is a fundamental goal of Krka National Park. Due to the centuries-old cohabitation of people with the river, swimming is allowed to the local population in the following locations: Stinice, Remetić – Pisak and downstream of Roški Waterfall,’ the Park said according to Croatia Week.

After many years of thought and numerous researches, consideration of the needs of both nature and us, who in one way or another use what Krka has given us, measures have been adopted that will contribute to long-term sustainable management and protection of nature,’ said Krka National Park director Nella Slavica.
