Gorski kotar is an elevated area in the south-western part of Mountain Croatia. It is made up of several smaller units of specific geographical features. They are the centrals (Delnice corridor), Risnjak-Snjeznik mountain block, the valley of Cabranka and Kupa, the transitive area of Severin and the Great Kapela mountain block. The average heights of Gorski kotar range from 700 to 800 metres, while individual mountains rise up above 1500 metres (Bjelolasica, Risnjak, Snjeznik). The largest rivers – Kupa, Dobra and Cabranka – flow along the brink and their valleys are in deep contrast to neighbouring higher areas. This wide table-land which, apart from steep peaks, also abunds in grasslands, plains, three lakes (Lokvarsko, Bajer, Lepenica), presents a kingdom of quietness that still reigns in these parts. The centuries-old tradition of highland life-style is preserved in villages and settlements (Delnice, Lokve, Fuzine, Cabar, Ravna Gora, Vrbovsko, Mrkopalj, Skrad, Brod Moravice). Also, if you visit even the smallest corner of Gorski kotar, this green heart of our beautiful country, you will witness the unique, nowhere else to be seen sceneries.

Fuzine, a mountain place closest to the sea, one may also enjoy swimming and fishing on two lakes, Lepenica and Bajer, or visit cave Vrelo. "Small Postojna" as it is often called, it is about 300 metres long with a walking track that enables both children and the elderly to come see it. Travelling further towards Zagreb, you will come across Kamacnik, a small river 3 km long – 3 km of beautiful, untouched nature, canyons with extremely impressive sceneries merging into the quaintness of crystal clear water, and rapids flowing through canyons: a harmony of incredible beauty, quiet and undisturbed serenity.
