Cetina River Spring

Cetina River Spring is one of those (many) places in Dalmatia that simply leaves you breathless. It was back in 2003 when we first visited, wife being pregnant for 8 months, followed by a VERY adventurous drive over Promina mountain to Drniš. This is an amazing part of Dalmatia!
