Una National Park tours and things to do

Cold, clear water steps over limestone ledges, foam hangs in the air, and forest closes around green channels. Trails lead to safe viewpoints, wooden paths cross quiet banks, and soft rafting routes drift through canyons. Bihać sits at the park’s edge for cafés and river walks.

Top things to do in Una National Park

Top story from the Una
Begin at Štrbački Buk where the river drops in white tiers and spray cools the path. Follow signed routes to platforms with long views, then drive upstream to Martin Brod for cascades that thread between stone and trees.

Pause for thick coffee in Bihać by the water, or take a soft rafting run through clear pools with trained guides. Read more in our Štrbački Buk guide and use our Bihać page to choose an easy base.
