A forest changing its colours

Let the weather guide you

Autumn at Plitvice Lakes can mean coloured foliage, mist, rain and bright intervals in the same visit. The landscape is beautiful in changing light, but trails and operating hours follow conditions. Choose a route that suits your time and mobility, and check the park’s official information before setting out.

Prepare for the paths

Wear shoes with grip and bring a waterproof layer. Boardwalks and steps can be slippery in wet weather. Buy entry through the official park website, check the opening status of your chosen route and avoid building your day around a single photograph. Foliage colour varies with the weather and elevation.
