Lake Jarun
Jezero Jarun
An artificial lake on the banks of the Sava River, known as "Zagreb's Sea," and popular in summer for swimming, boating, and nightclubs.
Lake Jarun was created from an old channel of the Sava River and was built as a rowing course for the 1987 World University Games. Along the lakeshore are pebbled shallows, cycling paths, a skate park, and bars. In summer, locals come to swim, sunbathe, and paddleboard. In the evening, the lakeside clubs stay lively late into the night. The lake has also hosted the INmusic Festival. Admission is free, and it's about a 20-minute ride by tram.
