About This Destination


The cliffs and dry riverbed of Velika Paklenica became the Wild West in the 1960s. The canyon appears in The Treasure of the Silver Lake (1962), Among Vultures (1964), Old Surehand (1965) and Winnetou and Shatterhand in the Valley of Death (1968).

Starigrad-Paklenica also has a Winnetou memorial exhibition in the former Motel Paklenica, where the film crew stayed. The town is a convenient base for visiting Paklenica and travelling on to the Zrmanja canyon and Tulove Grede.
