From Zadar we started heading inland again to see the Krka waterfalls, which are a very popular day trip from Split and have a reputation for being ridiculously busy. As we didn't want to experience this we took the online advice and got out of bed very early for the hour drive from Zadar.
Once we arrived at Lozovac we had to take a bus to the entrance and then follow the one way boardwalk through the park, past the waterfalls and tributaries until we reached the major waterfall Skradinski buk . Getting up early was definitely worth it as there were only a handful of people there. We continued on the circular path and as the morning progressed it noticeably getting much busier.
At one point we both realised the path we were in was looking familiar, we realised we had started the loop again! We walked against the oncoming crowds until we found the turn off we wanted to take and bought tickets for the boat trip to Roski Slap. We had to wait until 11am for the boat so spent the time planning some further travelling for the next few days.
The boat for Roski Slap first stopped at Visovac monastery which is on an island similar to Bled, interestingly it wasn't originally an island but a pile of rocks, the monks built the island by bringing everything from the mainland. From there the boat continued to Roski Slap, which is a smaller waterfall where we stayed for a while before returning to our car happy that we had missed most of the crowds.
We continued on to the small town of Korenica for the night so we would be close to Plitvice Lakes for our visit the next morning.
