Fall time in Plitvice National Park
Have you ever been to a place where you have timed everything perfectly and it all just came about so effortlessly in your travels? Well this is definitely one of those occasions in my traveling experience that everything seemed to fall into place so easily and happened perfectly. Hoping to time the fall and autumn colors is always tricky especially in an area you haven’t been to, but fortunately I was extremely lucky with visiting Plitvice National Park and seeing all the fall colors at its best for the park.
Elevated boardwalks over the waterways at Plitvice National Park
You take off initially at the main entrance and can either hike or take a tram leading you the highest point and you can hike down hill or start at any of the points they make a quick stop. After you unload, you are obligated in the upper areas to following elevated boardwalks that span ponds, waterways and water falls and this protects both the visitor and the environment from all the

Walking downhill form the highest point was a great decision, so all the walk was relatively easy and in a downhill fashion. Â Fortunately most people were walking the same paces or moving to the right to let people pass through. It was a really unique experience to be walking on elevated walkways in order to save the earth from being packed in and at the same time

Walking with all this amazing nature and beautiful waterfalls make it such a perfect combination to visit this area during the fall time frame. It’s worth the effort to travel to Plitvice during the autumn to see such glorious color and landscape.

Isn’t this place simply stunning? The fall colors are so amazing and I really lucked out for such an amazing combination of great weather and beautiful fall colors. There’s so much more to share so I will have a part two section coming up soon. Please stay tuned when I visit the lower sections of the park and a wonderful ferry ride through Plitvice lake.

I could think of no better place to be in the fall in Europe than Plitvice Lakes … simply stunning!
I was there in 1989 (Egad!) and want to go back with my sister because I know she’d love it!
Noel, these pictures are great. I have visited Plitvice lakes, however not during Autumn. Great to have a window into Plitvice during a different time of year!
Love the colors…
That second shot with the walking path is magical. I’d love to be there right now. 🙂
Gorgeous shots! This place is on my ‘list’. Was planning a trip in the Spring but I changed my mind since seeing this post — it looks like Autumn is the best time to visit! Plitvice can get very crowded in the summer. What’s it like now?
