Swimming in the Mrežnica River - MyPictureDay Submission

in #travel7 years ago

The content you specialize on Steemit? Mine is BEER, but I’ve fallen behind with all the travelling. I hope to remedy it soon!


Planning on having a weekend swim or just spend some time near water? Instead of visiting Plitvice Lakes National Park what everyone does go to the River Mrežnica instead. Be cool. Be different.

It is quite near Karlovac. Little over an hour drive from Zagreb, the capital.

One of the cleanest flowing natural waters in the whole country! Rich flora and fauna!

I wanted to swim up to a secluded area in the river itself and take some photos but I was afraid of getting my phone wet! My girlfriend said I was crazy and that I should stop thinking in Steemit colors all the time :)

It is amazing that you are actually able to swim up the little waterfalls and get a nice clean, refreshing massage by the water-flow! I don’t understand how is this not more popular.

A simple guide in 5 steps:

  • take your family tent

  • put it on a meadow next to the Zeleni Kut - a family B&B. The view from the place:

  • have lunch there - one of the best pizza I’ve tasted. Fresh toppings and lots of them. Budget prices. Healthy options available too!

  • jump in the river and dive in a myriad of fish and other cool creatures.

  • open a beer

Bliss!

Locals say that a day spent on the Mrežnica River is one day of life more!

Join me there the next weekend - 29/7/2017

Just make sure you don’t get bitten by one of those annoying bloodsuckers. Here is what @suesa has to say on the subject. A way to get rid of them!


Do you prefer swimming in fresh or salt water?

This looks like a cool place to spend some time. And you managed to get a beer pic in your post.
I like fresh and salt water for swimming but I lean more towards fresh water. It's more refreshing I'd say.
Enjoy your time there. Cheers 🍻

Well, a beer is a must! ;)

pizza and beer will do ! ill take it !

This looks like a lot of fun. Great posts!

Thank you! :)

Hey nice to see you back on dude. I had missed your posts!!

I need to brush up on yours, too!

Hehe, Cheers for the randowhaling!!!

No problem. I liked your post, just read it out to my gf. She applauds your efforts ;)

Wayhay!!! :0D

what was the water temperature?

Not sure but quite warm for the rushing water. I was surprised. I like it but those who enjoy colder temp might get a tad dissapointed.

That's what makes life worth living, right there. The beer is just an accessory at that point. As long as it is light and refreshing, I don't think you could make a bad choice.

lovely .........looks awesome. enjoyed your post.

cheers

That's a little paradise right there, I wanna go!

Nice river, nice food, nice people, nice posting and nice beer...Kampai ! :)
