The river Mrežnica
Many people who know the rivers of Croatia will say, that Mrežnica deserves a special place among the rivers of the Croatian karst. What makes Mrežnica exceptional, are the 93 travertine waterfalls, which in some places of the flow make little lakes. Their picturesque shapes is what makes them unique, as spring as the river itself.
What is especially interesting for this river is the position of these waterfalls. In the upper flow, from Čića's bridge to the Tržić bridge, in a length of only 5 km, there are 26 waterfalls, and there are as many in the lower flow from Generalski Stol to the place where it flows into Korana, but in a length of 39 km!
Several kilometers downstream the river goes into the narrowest canyon in its entire flow, and it runs through it all the way to Smoljanovića fall and to the bridge in Tounjski Tržić. In this part of only 1,2 km of flow, squeezed in a canyon full of vegetation, carved with white rocks, there are 9 waterfalls. In this part of the river there is a strong spring which brings down the temperature of Mrežnica in summer by 6-7 °C. The influence of this spring can be felt almost 5 km downstream, what is visible by different moss on the falls and the different shape of the falls.
