Rehabilitation of the burned areas in the Krka NP: fifty burned trees removed
During the summer of 2024, fire engulfed as much as 473 hectares of the Krka National Park, of which 171 hectares were forest
The Public Institute of Krka National Park began the rehabilitation of the affected areas in order to ensure the safety of the area and to restore the natural environment. In the first phase of work, from the 21st to the 27th of November 2024, fifty burnt trees were removed from the Mali and Veliki Debeljak areas. The work included a strip along the Dubravice – Rupe road, in a total length of 2.1 km, 15 m wide on both sides of the road.
Experts assessed the removed trees as high-risk: due to their poor health and lack of structural integrity, they posed a risk of falling onto the road. Their removal was carried out with temporary traffic regulation, and the wooden material was properly disposed of. After the work was completed, the road was reopened to traffic.
The rehabilitation of the burned areas will continue in 2025, with the aim of restoring the natural wealth of the Krka National Park and ensuring safety for both visitors and local residents.
