If you decide to visit the location you will find breathtaking spots with waterfalls, historical buildings and a big totem pole. The latter is a leftover of Karl May's film adaption of "Der Schatz im Silbersee", which was shot here and at other places in Croatia.

Found 04 September 2024 eulen mit hund found the geocache

Nach zwei Tagen an den Plitvicer Seen brauchten wir einen Ort mit wenig Menschen. Das haben wir in Rastoke gefunden. Das Areal an der Korana mit den unzähligen Wasserläufen und kleinen Wasserfällen ist fast ein Miniatur-Abbild der Plitvicer Seen. Sehr lecker ist der geräucherte und gegrillte Fisch im "Petro". Ein schöner Tag mit viel Ruhe und Entspannung. Danke fürs Zeigen.

Gemeinsam mit Eulen mit Hund hab ich diesen schönen Flecken Erde besucht. Ein paar Fotos gemacht und das Passwort von der Wand abgelesen. Mein Maskottchen Eulili hat an den Wasserfällen ebenso Freude gefunden.

🇩🇪 Auf der Heimfahrt haben wir in Slunj übernachtet. Es sah sehr stark nach Regen aus. Doch ich hatte Glück und konnte mir die Wasserfälle noch ansehen ohne nass zu werden.
