Brljan

Hrvatski

Dva kilometra nizvodno od Bilušića buka, na izlazu iz kanjona, Krka se proširuje u 400 m široko i 1300 m dugo Ćorića jezero (Bjelober, Brljansko jezero). Jezero je nastalo manjim dijelom rastom sedrene barijere slapa Brljana, a većim dijelom radi gradnje betonske brane akumulacije Brljan za potrebe hidroelektrane “Miljacke”. Voda jezera prelijeva se preko slapa Brljana samo za visokih voda jer se voda prokopanim tunelom odvodi do hidroelektrane. Dužina sedrene barijere slapa Brljana je oko 300 m, širina oko 180 m, a ukupan pad 15,5 m. Uzvodno su manja jezerca, brzaci i pragovi. Slap je okružen bujnim submediteranskim raslinjem, malim pašnajacima i kultiviranim poljima. Najljepši je u proljeće kada zazeleni, a bujna vegetacija još ne zakrili sedrene kaskade. Kroz kanjon a preko slapišta od davnina prelazi put o čemu svjedoče na bukovačkoj strani ostaci rimskog vojnog logora Burnuma. Preko sedrene barijere prolazi i današnji put iz Bukovice prema Promini. Na lijevoj strani rijeke vidljivi su brojni ostaci mlinova. U toplom dijelu godine slap je suh i beživotan, a presuši i gotovo pola kilometra dugo ujezereno korito rijeke Krke između Brljana i Manojlovačkih slapova.

English

Two kilometres downstream from Bilušića buk, at the canyon’s exit, the Krka River widens into the 400 metre wide and 1300 metre long Ćorić Lake (Bjelober, Brljan Lake). The lake emerged, in part, from the growth of the travertine barriers at the Brljan barrier, and in large part from the construction of a concrete dam constructed at Brljan for the needs of the Miljacka hydroelectric plant. The water in the lake flows over the Brljan waterfall only during high waters, as water is redirected from the river through a drilled tunnel to supply the hydroelectric plant. The travertine barriers at the Brljan cascades are approximately 300 metres long, 180 metres wide, with a total drop of 15.5 metres. Upstream there are smaller rivers, rapids and thresholds. The waterfall is surrounded by lush sub-Mediterranean vegetation and cultivated fields. It is most attractive in the spring when everything is green, and the vegetation does not yet cover the travertine cascades. There is a path on the Bukovac side, through the canyon and over the waterfall, where visitors can see the remnants of the Roman military camp Burnum. Over the travertine barriers, there is a path from Bukovac towards Promina. On the left side of the river, there are the remnants of various mills that can still be seen today. In the warm months, the waterfall is dry and lifeless, and the 500 metre long bed of the Krka River between Brljan and the Manojlovac slap waterfall dries out.
