The modern tourist
offer has introduced the term "unplugged vacation", which means a
holiday in places without any telecommunication signals, meaning no
mobile phones, internet and other miracles of modern technology. Some of
these "unplugged" places are located for example in Alaska, on the
Rocky Mountains in the USA, on the Carribean island Anguilla, in
Mongolia or a desert oasis in Marocco.
Croatia also has special places like these. Before all, these are small
far away islands turned towards the open sea, then the National park
Risnjak and some of its areas that hold no signal. Accommodation can be
found there in mountaineering huts just under the very peak of Risnjak.
Velebit also offers accommodation where there is no danger of modern
technology.
Certain rural areas of Banovina, Slavonia and Podravina are still out of
the digital signal’s reach and by this also belong to the category of
potential destinations in Croatia for the development of the more and
more popular form of "unplugged" tourism.
