Stone Bridge over the Mala Savica

Inconspicuous when you walk over it. But when you go down to the river you have this beautiful view.

First of all ... with the bike you can not drive directly to the highlight.
You meet no matter which side of the lake you come from, at some point on a large parking lot, here's schonmal if you want a little refreshment and toilets.
It's best to join the bikes right away and continue on foot.
Shortly thereafter, you meet (what a miracle 😅) on a small ticket booth ... for 3 Euronen inlet duty you can then continue the way and walk up step by step.
The waterfall
itself is divided into two parts ... the big falls from 78 meters to the valley and the smaller one from 25 meters high.
Even if you read on some websites (like me as well) ... that you can swim there..mmmh..maybe before our time, but unfortunately this is not the (water) case.
I wish you a lot of fun anschauen.

Trail Sign to Črno Jezero and Koča pri Triglavskih Jezerih

Highlight • Trail

Before the damage done by crazy weather some years ago, this wonderful mountain trail used to be just in "somewhat strenuous" category. No real technical difficulties, no special equipment necessary, just unrelenting going up and up and up, but in beautiful surroundings and on good, firm enough ground (one very short and easy ferrata-like passage that any child could do). Obligatory stop at Črno jezero (Black Lake), and then on to Triglav Lakes Hut (Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih). Trekking poles and good hiking boots was all one needed, in addition to being in a good enough shape to ascend for a couple of hours on a relatively steep terrain. I have done it a number of times, either alone or with my family and friends. After the weather disaster, the trail was closed for quite some time due to fallen trees and other damage and debris. If it is now open I would really love to do it again, but considering my advancing age and retreating health, I may just have to hold on to my memories.
