River Krka is one of the most interesting karst rivers and has for its exceptional natural beauty great tourist and recreational potential. There are a number of dams and typical travertine dams on the river, which give it a special touch, because it is Krka the only Slovenian river creating the bed of travertine. In the past was river Krka much more utilized for water management activities, because there worked numerous mills and saws. Therefore, today there are numerous dams, most of them are no longer used for water management activities, except pair of exceptions, where there are still operating mills and small hydroelectric plants. This thesis presents in detail all the dams on river Krka that are in good condition, in slightly worse condition are their waterside facilities, because they are the most abonded. Dams are also drawn in the longitudinal profile of the river Krka. Today have dams
important recreational role. On the river Krka is boating the most popular form of recreation, in the upper part of the river especially kayaking and rafting and in the lower part canoeing and sup (stand up paddleboards). About recreation and tourism in the valley of the river Krka
