Between 1962 and 1968, 11 films on Winnetou, were shot in Croatia as a coproduction between Berlin’s Rialto Film and Zagreb’s Jadran Film.
Seven films were shot mostly in Paklenica up to the Prezid Pass in the south of Velebit. Four films were shot at the Paklenica National Park: Treasure of Silver Lake (1962), Among Vultures (1964), Old Surehand (1965) and Winnetou and Shatterhand in the Valley of Death (1968). Three more films were shot in Modrič – Rovanjska, Jasenice, at the Zrmanja River, Tulove grede cliffs and the Prezid Pass: Winnetou I (1963), Winnetou III (1965) and Winnetou and the Apache (1966).
After 40 minutes long drive, we will arrive to Paklenica National Park.
At this location there is an interesting memorial space in the original ambience of the former hotel Paklenica where a film crew was present, located within the present hotel Alan.
