- Description
-
Among the pre-historical caves arranged for visitors Manita Peć in Paklenica National Park stands out as a milestone known for its impressive halls and richness of its flowstone formations. Path itself is an easy trail-hike up the serpentines. It is well built to cross over the talus which would otherwise be quite impassable. Higher you hike up the path, the greater are the views, spreading over the course of canyon in both directions. At the opposite side, the eastern edge, stone giant of Anića Kuk rises surreal from the bottom of the valley. Just looking at it makes you feel small compared to creation capabilities of Mother Nature. In case you feel adventurous, the mountaineer path continues further from the cave taking you to Vidakov Kuk, but from that point beware - gone is an easy trail-hike, welcome the true hiking challenge of Paklenica.

- Tips
-
The trail begins with a groomed path, alternating between a rocky surface and earthen paths of high quality. After it branches off towards Manita peć, the trail narrows and becomes rougher. However, at the end of the ascent, the trail becomes easier, and the quality of the surface improves.
