Babić Lake
Lake Babić is a stunning glacial lake nestled in the heart of Lika, often referred to as the “mountain eye.” Surrounded by steep banks and dense forest, the water is crystal-clear and reaches depths of up to 50 meters. This is a true natural treasure – perfect for hiking, swimming, and peaceful relaxation in untouched wilderness. What makes it truly special is its unspoiled environment, offering complete silence and a feeling of isolation from the noise of the modern world.
