Excursions in Lonjsko Polje

An excursion southeast of Zagreb to the Lonjsko polje region along the Sava River will bring you to an area that is rarely seen by most visitors. Along Croatia's extensive border with Bosnia and Herzegovina are two sights of pronounced historical interest, and one—Lonjsko polje Nature Park—holds special appeal to lovers of big birds, along with plenty of pretty wooden architecture in and around the sleepy villages along the way.
