At Paklenica, Velebit becomes vertical. The canyons draw the eye upwards, while trails lead deeper into a landscape shaped by stone, water and time. Starigrad is a practical coastal starting point for this southern chapter.

Velika Paklenica is the main visitor approach. Mala Paklenica is a more demanding undertaking intended for experienced hikers. Choose deliberately, and use the national park’s current information to plan your day.

Before you go

Check tickets, trail notices and any Manita peć cave visiting arrangements directly with Paklenica National Park. Cave access and timetables can change.
