Skradin & National Park Krka

Skradin is the picturesque, charming little town at the National Park Krka Waterfalls' doorstep. Hidden in the estuary of the river Krka and surrounded by beautiful landscape.

Skradin is one of the oldest Croatian settlements with the "town" status. Skradin, which got its name during the Roman era, is one of the oldest towns in Croatia, whose history can be traced back to Illyrian times. The ancient Scardona was a Roman municipium, port, and stronghold for the army and an important trade center.

Avars, Turks, and Venetians all ravaged the town at different points throughout history. With the favorable geostrategic position, fertile soil, and plenty of freshwater sources, Skradin was always a place of interest. The rich history is reflected in the town's valuable cultural and historical heritage, seen at every corner.

Don't miss out on an exquisite culinary experience and try some of the traditional dishes from Skradin. The famous dishes are Skradin risotto or local mouth-watering sweets made from figs, almonds, and mulberries. 

Fish delicacies, both sea and river, eel, and trout, hold a special place. Supreme prosciutto ham dried in the north-eastern bora wind of the Skradin hinterland and meat specialties from cattle freely grazing in nature. Local, homegrown, and fresh ingredients are grown far away from cities and pollution.
