Japodski Otoci

You'll have quite enough to do on and directly from the site, but there's a goodly amount of stuff to see and do to keep you entertained around Una-Sana and further afield too. A first local stop should be the vibrant riverside town of Bihać, for pottering around its medieval buildings and eating your way through the menus of the riverside cafés and restaurants... then a Preminger beer from Bihać's award-winning brewery. You can go whitewater rafting from Bihać too (not after beer, plizz): along the Kostela to Salihovac route for beginners, and the Strbački buk-Lohovo way for hardier types. And then... time for a day or three in the Plitvice Lakes National Park, 55 minutes' drive away over the border in Croatia. This spectacular 30,000-hectare place is home to waterfalls and lakes, caves and streams, and a jaw-dropping variety of wildlife including the European black bear: tis no wonder at all it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site... The same distance from Japodski Otoci but on the Bosnian side of the border is Una National Park, also a top spot for waterfalls and whitewater rafting including the waters of Martin Brod where the International Una Regatta kayaking comp starts.
