Kopački Rit Nature Park: Essential Wetlands & Wildlife

Kopački Rit Nature Park, situated at the confluence of the Danube and Drava rivers, is one of Europe’s largest and best-preserved floodplains. This list highlights the park's diverse landscape, from the historic Tikveš castle complex to the extensive wooden boardwalks designed for wildlife observation. Home to over 300 bird species, including the white-tailed eagle, the area features a network of lakes, canals, and marshes that serve as a vital ecological sanctuary and a significant spawning ground for Danube fish.
