The lovely city of Knin has some astonishingly beautiful rivers. My friends and I enjoyed canyoning along the river admiring all the lush vegetation, trees, and scenic views. We afterward had picnics that were so much fun. I recommend this city to every nature lover.

My friends and I had a terrific time here in Knin. We especially found the outdoor bars very relaxing as they had magical scenic views of the sea. The panoramic views at night, while enjoying a glass of wine and grilled fish are just unforgettable.
