the largest Croatian mountain and it belongs to the Dynarian system. It
extends in the NW-SE direction, taking hold of three Croatian regions: Lika,

there's The Velebit channel of Adriatic Sea on one side and fields "Ličko i
Gacko polje" on the other. From the South it's limited with the canyon of
Zrmanja, and from the North it is separated from the spur of Kapela by a
deeply engraved ablout Vratnik. The total lenght of Velebit is about 145 km,
while its width is changing-the largest is up to 30 km on the
Zavižan-Markovićeva rudina line. The mountain of Velebit is divided on The
North, The Middle, The South and The South-East part. Such division is based
upon its natural marks-geographical and relief ones.

Paklenica National Park
http://www.paklenica.hr/
With its
surface area of 96 km2, from the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea to the
highest peaks of the Velebit Mountains, Vaganski Vrh (1757 m) and Sveto Brdo
(1753 m), Paklenica abounds with numerous natural wonders and phenomena, which
is why the entire area was proclaimed a national park in 1949. And rightfully
so, as this region is simple and unusual in its connection between the sea and
the mountains, rich in beech and black pine forests, its deep canyons cut
vertically into the Velebit ridge, its karst formations and numerous caves and
pits.
