Sustainable management

The Krka National Park is a unique example of ​​the coexistence of mankind and a river in a karst landscape, with preserved natural processes, biodiversity, landscape elements, and a cultural, historical, and traditional heritage.

With its continuous flow, travertine waterfalls, forest habitats, and speleological structures, the Krka River is the fundamental feature of this protected area. The sustainable development of the Krka National Park is based on the preservation of the natural features, the protection and preservation of the cultural heritage, the management of visits, interpretation, and education, and cooperation with the local community. The preservation of the diversity of species and habitat types, the specific karst landscape, and the natural travertine precipitation and deposition process of the Krka River, as well as the promotion of the cultural heritage as a carrier of cultural identity, are key missions of the Park. A visiting system that respects the protection and preservation of the natural and cultural heritage ensures the satisfaction and education of visitors, and the financial security of the Park and contributes to the well-being of the local community. High-quality cooperation with the local community and units of the local government, with mutual trust, increases awareness of the importance of protecting the features of the area and contributes to sustainable development. The Park utilizes all the resources necessary for the permanent improvement of all segments of management and organization.
