Here we find all the nuances of turquoise and emerald that cover the bed of the Soča over a length of 750 meters. About fifteen meters deep, this canyon is particularly interesting for its steep walls and for polishing stones. The great Soča flows closely through it, cutting everything royally during its passage. The advantage is that they can be discovered in several ways: rafting, canyoning or kayaking. An activity that will delight the whole family!

The waterfall is simply the most powerful waterfall in the country when the snow melts in the spring. The flow rate can be up to 100 ^m3 per second!

In addition to being particularly noisy, the show is beautiful and is very well photographed. To get there, you have to go to the village of Žaga, west of Bovec, in the direction of Italy.

A beautiful escapade in perspective through the green valley of the Soča. From the village of Plužna, follow the signs to Virje. Little effort to make, in only a few minutes you are in front of this impressive karstic waterfall! The water is a delightful emerald green and the décor is conducive to relaxation and smiles.

The origin is very old since a building already existed at the end of the 15th century to protect against the Ottoman invader. It was first destroyed by the untimely assaults of Napoleon's troops at the very beginning of the 19th century. Its present appearance dates back to 1883, following its first reconstruction. The upper part was heavily damaged during the First World War. The ensemble is impressive and the interior well transformed into a museum.
