The easiest way to reach Panagua is via a road from the Croatian village of Batina.  As of August 2025, there are increased border controls and ‘traffic controls’ by the Croatian police in the area. If you would like to travel to Panagua, please contact the Duckionary tourist office at visit@duckionary.com to arrange either a boat connection from Osijek or the Ark Liberland Village or a guided tour by land. Here you will also receive important information on dealing with the police in the region.

​

Tourists are strongly advised not to hike cross-country across the Croatian border to Panagua, as there may still be landmines from the Croatian War of Independence in the area around Panagua. Stay on paved paths and keep an eye out for mine warning signs!

​

When you visit Panagua, there are many interesting activities to do. For example, you can travel along the Danube and admire the unique nature of the area. Hiking is also possible, from the river beaches and along the trails to the border in less than half an hour. The region offers beautiful wildlife and clear air. There are stone jetties on the banks of the Danube where you can enjoy a picnic. Boundary markers have been placed on the beach, and in 2025 a plaque was left on a tree near the Danube, which is well worth a visit.

 

Camping is currently restricted. We recommend that you take part in excursions organised by the government to ensure safety. Contact the government for more information. In the next few years, the government plans to hire a travel agency in Croatia for camping activities and general tourism.

 

If you visit Panagua with a tour organised by Duckionary, you will probably be accompanied by a government official. This is to make your trip safe and hassle-free and also to answer any questions you may have about the country, whether it's about plans for the future of Panagua or the wildlife in the area.
