Depending on the water level, we use rafts, two-person sit-on-top kayaks or open canoes which are easy and safe to navigate. Due to its biological diversity and variety of habitats, the Mreznica area should soon be categorised as a Croatian Nature Park. It is home to many endangered and protected plant and animal species that you may get a chance to observe. These include 4 species of birds from the ‘red list’ of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature - the Golden Eagle, the Lesser Spotted Eagle, the Western Capercaillie and the Great White Egret.
