Krka National Park – winner of WLE in Croatia 2017

Wiki Loves Earth is a photography contest in which the participants upload images of nature monuments at Wikimedia Commons, so that they can be subsequently used in Wikipedia's articles. The first edition took place in 2013 and was organized by Wikimedia Ukraine. The contest became international in 2014.

Croatia participates for the sixth time this year. The local contest is held between June 1– June 30, 2023. In June, you may upload as many pictures as you want of natural sites that you have visited. Pictures don't have to be taken in June, but must be uploaded during that month to be considered. Provide your photo with {{Wiki Loves Earth 2023|hr}} template. At the end of the month, the contest jury will begin evaluating the photographs and will choose the best 10 pictures of the natural sites in Croatia, and ultimately in the world.
