Pliva Lakes
Plivska jezera
Two high mountain lakes west of Jajce, with trails, boardwalks, and boat docks along their shores. The large lake once hosted the World Rowing Championships.
The Pliva Lakes consist of a large lake and a small lake, dammed by travertine barriers. The water is clear, and the lakes are surrounded by mountain forests. The large lake is a traditional rowing venue and has hosted the World Rowing Championships. Its shoreline has a cycle path, wooden boardwalks, and a small bathing area, and in summer you can rent kayaks or pedal boats. Campsites and guesthouses stand by the lake, making it a good place to spend an extra half day relaxing in Jajce. The lakes are about 4 to 5 km from the old town, reachable on foot, by bike, or by taxi.
