Did you know that Kozara is an island mountain whose highest peaks rose from the Pannonian Sea approximately 65 million years ago?
As the Pannonian Sea receded, Kozara first became a
peninsula, and after the drainage of the Pannonian Gulf of Paratethys, it
became part of a wider contiguous landmass.
A general characteristic of the relief of the area of today's National Park is great dynamism, with pronounced terrain slopes, alternating between incised valleys, mountain slopes, ridges, and isolated peaks.
The highest point of Kozara is Gola Mountain at 874 meters
above sea level, while Mrakovica stands at 806 meters above sea level.
"Nature took millions of years to create what we enjoy
today, so let's treat its beauties and values with care and respect,"
the NP Kozara emphasized.
