4 Most Fascinating Nature Destinations In Europe

1. Plitvice Lakes, Croatia

Doesn't the image above make your jaw drop? Those are the charming Plitvice Lakes. Part of the Plitvice Lakes National Park, visitors can feast their eyes on the unspoilt beauty of the sixteen turquoise and deep blue lakes. The Plitvice Lakes are some of the most beautiful lakes in Europe!

This magical UNESCO world heritage site has a plethora of glorious cascades and waterfalls weaving through the lakes.

2. The Northern Lights, Sweden

Also known as the Aurora Borealis, the Northern Lights is one of Mother Nature's most spectacular creations of all time. I don't know about you, but I'd rather have my eyes marvelling at the greenish-purplish glowing skies than scramble for unicorn frappuccinos any time. Head over to Abisko, Sweden, to catch nature's most dazzling light show when you are travelling in Europe. Abisko is nestled in the far north of Sweden; hop aboard a sleeper train from Stockholm to get there.

3. Fjords, Norway

Fjords in Norway are protected by UNESCO and just to put things into perspective, there are over 1,000! Take in the beauty of Norway's majestic fjords through the Flåm Railway if you want to experience one of the world's most amazing train rides. You'll get to treat your eyes and soul to incredible views of the fjords, cascading waterfalls, gaping ravines, lofty peaks and more. For an experience of a lifetime, sail on the fjords and appreciate traditional Norway's beguiling beauty.

4. Moss Swamp, Romania

Mysterious is the right word to describe this fascinating moss swamp in Romania. It doesn't even have an official name to it and its location cannot be found simply by punching in some letters on Google Maps. Here you can find out where this moss swamp and the most mysterious forests in the world are located. If you really can't find this moss swamp when you are there, don't despair because Romania has a lot of gorgeous forests and mountains to offer as well.
