Volunteer programmes in 2022

The volunteer programme is a step forward in the valorisation of the Krka Eco Campus at Puljane, where the Public Institute of Krka National Park has developed a significant educational and reception complex to facilitate the development of volunteer activities in the Park, and advance nature conservation by enabling interesting individuals to get involved in the activities in protected areas.
