High quality drinking water in it’s natural state is becoming less and less available to the human population. Based on the expected climate changes, it is considered that this resource will be less in the world but also in our region. Also, the accompanying polluting components that exceed the maximum allowable concentration are increasingly present in the waters. Even after the water treatment, it happens that some components are still in the drinking water, which adversely affects human health. One of the highest quality waters used for water supply of the population is groundwater, within which karst spring waters are separated. Karst massifs are mostly uninhabited areas without industry, while roads are laid mainly along their perimeter so that there are almost no potential contaminants of karst aquifer water. This is also
the reason why some local karst water works capture these waters in their natural state for their own needs, id without prior treatment. This paper will present how this important renewable, high quality water resource can be used through the circular economy, and in addition to the mentioned water supply, it can also be used for aquaculture, irrigation, hydropower production, recreation and tourism, etc.
