Why visit Veliki Slap Waterfall
At 78 metres, Veliki Slap is Croatia's tallest waterfall — the thunderous full stop where the Lower Lakes plunge into the Korana canyon. A boardwalk trails right along its splash zone from the eastern entrance (Entrance 1); come in spring snow-melt for maximum flow, or on a still autumn morning for a rainbow-lit spray in the golden hour..

History
At 78 metres, Veliki Slap is Croatia's tallest waterfall — the thunderous full stop where the Lower Lakes plunge into the Korana canyon. A boardwalk trails right along its splash zone from the eastern entrance (Entrance 1); come in spring snow-melt for maximum flow, or on a still autumn morning for a rainbow-lit spray in the golden hour.
“In hot summers the flow drops to a trickle — the fall is best after spring snowmelt.”
