What it is

It is a 300 m zip line that crosses the Korana river canyon at Selište Drežničko, about 3 km from Entrance 1 of the Plitvice Lakes. It is run by Adrenalin Park Plitvice, an adventure park next to the Gajina pećina cave. You hang from a cable in a harness, from one side of the canyon to the other, at a speed the operator puts at up to 70 km/h.

It is a short plan for the afternoon, after doing the lakes in the morning. The Korana is the river that is born at the foot of the Great Waterfall, at the end of the lower lakes, and here it already runs hemmed in between rock walls.

Hours and season

According to its website, it is open daily from 1 April to 1 November, from 11:00 to 19:00, and closes when it rains. The operator adds that other dates can be agreed. In November 2026 it is out of season.

Price, age and booking

The Adrenalin Park Plitvice website does not publish prices, minimum age or weight or height limits. To find out, and to confirm that they are open on the day you are going, write to [email protected] or call +385 91 177 7445, the details given on its contact page. If you are going with teenagers, ask specifically about the minimum age and weight before travelling.

The operator announces other activities in preparation, such as climbing and abseiling, a 12 m giant swing and zorbing; for now the one that runs is the zip line.

What to bring

The operator asks for sporty outdoor clothing and footwear, such as trainers and shorts in summer.

Getting there

Selište Drežničko is on the D1, north of Entrance 1, towards Rakovica and Slunj. The address the operator gives is Gajina pećina, Selište Drežničko.

If it rains or the weather changes

In rain it does not operate. If the day turns bad, a covered alternative nearby is the Barać caves, in Rakovica, open from April to October.

Combine it with

In the morning do programme A from Entrance 1, 2 to 3 hours, and leave the zip line for after lunch: it is 3 km away. If you continue north, the Rastoke mills, in Slunj, are on the same river.
