Question
Hi. We plan to drive from Split to Plitvice late evening and want to break up the journey. Is there a town near the freeway(with hotels, food & gas station) going from Split to Plitvice (nearer to Plitvice) where we can stop over for the night.
Thank you.

All hotels are situated at Velika Poljana, central tourist zone of the Park, except campsite Korana which is located 6km prior to Entrance1. Closest airport is at Zagreb - about 140km away, while railway connections are in Karlovac (90km away) or again Zagreb (140km away). Approximately 30 buses pass to/from Zagreb/South Croatia daily.
