Itinerary description

This is a short relaxing hike in the forest which gives you the opportunity to see the rare Dalmatian pelican. There was built a viewpoint sometimes ago that is not existing at the moment. Given that there is not a viewpoint with binoculars and the path is unmarked, you should have your own binoculars and a GPS device. In a absence of a GPS device, a local guide is essential.

The hike starts at one of the entrances of the southern forest of the park, 1, 5 km NE of the park entrance (WP 1). The entrance of the forest is a blue iron door. The hike follows SW along a visible path and after approx. 200 meters there is a deviation in the right side but we follow strait (WP 2). We follow strait (SW) for approx. 2,6 km until we reach a destroyed wooden view point (WP 3). From here is a very clear view to Pelicans Island. The island is located approx. 1, 3 km E of the WP 3. The hike finish at WP 1 through taking the same route we did.
