The Krka River in the eyes of the park staff – a virtual exhibition on the occasion of Earth Day

“The employees of the Krka National Park are our best spokespersons, because they represent the Park in the most authentic way. I believe that it is precisely the scenes in these photographs that will inspire visitors to discover our national park for themselves, perhaps even this weekend, when we celebrate Earth Day with special gratitude and attention”, stated Nella Slavica, director of the Krka National Park.

It is said that when something takes place three times, then it can be called a tradition. In this manner the virtual photo exhibition “The Krka River Through the Eyes of the Staff” has become a traditional promotional campaign, organized by the employees of the Krka National Park on the occasion of international Earth Day. Photos of the flora and fauna, enchanting waterfalls, and the valuable cultural and historical heritage, of which the Krka National Park is particularly proud, can be found in the virtual photo gallery.

The Krka River is a source of inexhaustible inspiration for numerous world travelers and nature lovers, but also for local residents as well as employees of the Krka National Park. Precisely because they observe the Krka on a daily basis, the employees of the Krka National Park have participated in this promotional campaign to show the incredible details of the Krka River that remain hidden from most visitors.

The Krka National Park will mark Earth Day, the 22^nd of April, with a special workshop for students of the Brodarica Elementary School on May 2^nd at the Skradinski buk waterfall. The children will play an educational game designed as part of the Educational and Creative Assistant volunteer program at the Krka Eco Campus in Puljane. After that, they will participate in a workshop on recycling old paper and PVC bags.

Earth Day is celebrated with the aim of raising public awareness of the dangers that threaten life on Earth, the need to protect the environment, and to preserve biological diversity and favorable conditions for the coexistence of man and nature.
