You step off the coach into misty air thick with the sound of falling water — a chorus that follows you along wooden boardwalks and through beech and spruce forests. On this day trip from Zagreb you’ll move from the mill-lined cascades of Rastoke to the dramatic travertine terraces of Plitvice Lakes, where sixteen linked lakes cascade into one another in stages of blue and green.
