Biogradska Gora National Park Essentials

Biogradska Gora protects one of Europe’s last three primeval forests, featuring trees over 400 years old. This selection centers on Biogradsko Lake, the largest glacial lake in the Bjelasica mountain range, and the high-altitude peaks of Crna Glava and Zekova glava. It highlights the region's 'katun' culture—seasonal mountain settlements like Vranjak and Raković—where traditional architecture and highland cuisine remain preserved. Access points include the park's info center and viewpoints like Bendovac, which offers a direct perspective of the virgin forest canopy.
