SIGHTS AND ATTRACTIONS:
River Zrmanja is one of the most beautiful rivers in Croatia since it flows through karst landscape of Nature park Velebit. After 69 km Zrmanja flows into the sea, not far from the city of Obrovac. Zrmanja is well known for its beautiful canyons and the most famous and impressive one is the one between Obrovac and just before the river flows into the Novigrad Sea. This canyon is characterized by 200 m high cliffs that rise above the river and protected as natural geomorphological monument.

Jankovića buk is the last waterfall on the river Zrmanja. It can be reached by boat through the Zrmanja canyon and it is a famous picnic and swimming location. The remains of the former water mills reveal the once important mill tradition on this waterfall. Those water mills are tourist attraction even though they are not renovated.
