Prvi je od sedam slapova na toku rijeke Krke Bilušića buk. Nalazi se stisnut u kanjonu oko 16 km nizvodno od izvorišta, odnosno 9 km nizvodno od Knina, na nadmorskoj visini 214 m. Današnji izgled slapa i vodotoka izmijenjen je u četiri navrata miniranjem radi sprječavanja poplava u Kninskom polju (1834., 1895., 1953. i 1954. god.). Zahvatima se snizila razina vode uzvodnog toka zbog čega je presušilo Bobodolsko jezero. Iako okrnjen, slap je i danas vrlo bučan i privlačan jer je jedini slap na kojem nema energetskog iskorištavanja vode rijeke. Preko njega cijele se godine prelijeva ukupan dotok Krke. Sastoji se od dviju glavnih stepenica i nekoliko međustepenica na dužini od 300 m, s ukupnom visinskom razlikom od 22,4 m. Širina slapa je oko 100 m, ali za niska vodostaja, voda se prelijeva kroz usjek širine svega tridsetak metara. Od sedrenih oblika Bilušića buk obiluje bradama i polušpiljama. Nizvodno od slapa nalazimo brojne barijerice, a neposredno ispod njih sedrene pragove i otočiće. Izvan današnjeg vodotoka može se vidjeti odlično sačuvana i izuzetno atraktvina “mrtva sedra”. Između sedrenih stepenica malo je jezerce. Nizvodno od donje stepenice rijeka se širi, a tok smiruje. Slapište je okruženo bujnim submediteranskim raslinjem i gustim vrbicima. Uz tok rijeke nekoliko je malenih polja u kojima se sadi povrće. Od brojnih mlinova, stupa i valjavica danas su na slapu očuvana samo dva mlina i jedna valjavica. Do slapa se s bukovičke strane može doći cestom Knin-Kistanje ako se skrene kod sela Radučića (Omčikus) i produži neasfaltiranom cestom do željezničke stanice Radučić. Da bi se došlo na rub kanjona, treba još nekoliko stotina metara pješačiti. S ruba kanjona vodi uska staza kojom se može spustiti do rijeke u podnožju slapa.

Put do cachea
Zbog lošeg prijema GPS signala i problema u određivanju točnih koordinata, molimo da se spustite skroz do vidikovca. Cache se može dohvatiti s drvenih stepenica koje vode do rijeke.

The first of seven cascades on the course of the Krka River is Bilušića buk. The falls are found wedged in a canyon approximately 16 km downstream from the source, specifically 9 km downstream from Knin, at an altitude of 214 m above sea level. The appearance of the waterfall and current has been changed on four occasions, when dynamite was used to stop flooding in the Knin Field (in 1834, 1895, 1953 and 1954). These operations lowered the water levels of the upstream current, which dried out Bobodol Lake. Though damaged, the waterfall today is still very loud and attractive as this is the only waterfall which has not been impacted by the utilization of the river's water for energy needs. Year round, the entire current of the Krka River flows over this cascade. It is made up of two main steps and several intermediate steps 300 metres in total length, with a total difference in altitude of 22.4 metres. The width of the waterfall is approximately 100 metres, but even during low water levels, the water flows through a cutting which is only thirty metres wide. Bilušića buk is formed by travertine formations such as tufts and small caves. There are numerous barriers downstream from the falls, with travertine thresholds and islands directly beneath the falls. Near today's riverbed, well-maintained and attractive “dead travertine” can be seen. Between the travertine steps, there are small lakes. Downstream from the lowest step, the river widens and the current calms. The waterfall is surrounded by lush sub-Mediterranean vegetation and thick purple loosestrife. Next to the river, there are several small fields where vegetables grow. Of the numerous mills, columns and valjavica (natural washing hole in which water is channelled to a natural hole in the karst, where centrifugal force causes the water to spin), today only two mills and one washing hole have been maintained. The falls can be reached from the Bukovac side via the road Knin-Kistanje by taking the turnoff at the village of Radučić (Omčikus) and continuing down the unpaved road to the Radučić railway station. To reach the ledge of the canyon, you must walk several hundred metres. From the edge of the canyon, there is a narrow path that leads to the river at the foot of the waterfall.

Way to the cache
Because of the poor reception of GPS signal and problems in determining the exact coordinates, please go all the way down to the viewpoint. Cache can be retrieved from the wooden stairs leading to the river.
