Neretva, Southeastern Europe
Neretva is the world's largest "karst river" or river surrounded by karst topography, which is the phenomena of rock dissolution that creates caves, sinkholes, sinking streams and large springs. Running mostly through Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as Croatia, the river is considered among the 10 most endangered karst ecosystems—its cold, fresh water is maintained by dams and hydroelectric plants—but is still hailed as one of the most beautiful rivers in the world.
