💡 Tips

Use the Lozovac entrance to Krka National Park; it gives free parking and is just a short drive from Konjevrate.
Arrive 15 minutes before the park opens (usually 8 AM) to see Skradinski Buk before the large tour groups arrive.
Visit the Church of St. John the Baptist in the village to see archaeological fragments dating back to the Middle Ages.
Note that swimming at Skradinski Buk is strictly prohibited to protect the travertine barriers.
Be sure to reserve a table at local konobas, as they are famous nationwide for their spit-roasted lamb.

Bilušića Buk

Konjevrate is strategically located on the road connecting Šibenik to the Krka National Park. The village is one of the oldest settlements in this part of Dalmatia, serving as an important local junction since the Middle Ages. The main attraction of the village is the Church of St. John the Baptist (Sveti Ivan Krstitelj), built on the foundations of an early Christian basilica. The church's architecture reflects various periods of Dalmatian history. For travelers, Konjevrate is a convenient stopover on the way to the Skradinski Buk or Roški Slap waterfalls. The village is known for its excellent agrotourism estates, where traditional dishes such as 'peka' (meat cooked under a bell) and local wines are served. The landscape is characterized by rugged karst interrupted by fertile valleys where olives and grapes are grown. The peace and authenticity of Konjevrate offer a pleasant contrast to the bustling nearby coastal towns.
