ZELENCI NATURE RESERVE
Read moreJust 3 km west of Kranjska Gora, wedged between the ski slopes and the road to Italy, lies the small Zelenci nature reserve. Pretty paths, some with wooden footbridges, allow you to discover the region's exceptional flora. After a 10-minute walk, you come to a small lake. The crystal-clear waters leave you pensive. A wooden observatory allows you to watch, in silence, the various colonies of birds on the lake.
TAMAR VALLEY
Read moreAt the end of the valley, the refuge awaits you. You'll never tire of gazing at the sloping summit of Jalovec (2,645 m). Nearby is the Nadiže waterfall, the first source of the Save River. The waters disappear and reappear at Zelenci, the official birthplace of the Save, which joins the Danube at Belgrade in Serbia.
A number of hiking trails lead to the Vršič pass (1,611 m) or the Jalovec summit (2,645 m). Please note that these routes are for experienced hikers only. Several passages are exposed.
