LIKE LIKA FESTIVAL


Lika is so beautiful and diverse that it enchants and entices whichever side you approach. Lika is a mountain plateau in the southwest of central Croatia, broken down by smaller mountain ranges which, transforming directly into the Adriatic coast, form a rarely seen relief.

Lika is proud of three national parks

Most of the area of ​​Lika consists of national parks (Plitvice Lakes, Paklenica, and Northern Velebit) interspersed with Croatian subterranean rivers (Gacka, Lika, Otuča, Krbava, Korenica, and the river Una, which springs in Lika).

In addition to natural sights, springs of rivers, lakes, waterfalls, and a wealth of national and cave parks, Lika preserves and reveals the rich cultural and historical heritage of Croatia. 

Lika stands inhabited since prehistory 

Lika inherited the traces of human settlement of this paradise land from prehistory, through the ancient Iron Age Japodes, ancient Illyricum, and the medieval Old Croatian parishes of the Croatian Kingdom to the present day.

Lika is the perfection of green tones that get a white cloak in winter.

Lika has given the most extraordinary mind to modern history and knowledge, Nikola Tesla.

Lika gave to Croatia – the father of our homeland –Ante Starčević

Lika never makes you indifferent… 

Lika is true medicine for peace of mind.
