Things to see and do Luče

This cave was discovered in 1981. It is in fact a cooler where the snow, accumulated during the winters, came down from the surface along faults and was transformed into ice by settling. It is believed to be over 10 million years old. Inside, the temperature is almost constant and never rises above 4°C. Stalagmites sometimes exceed 20 m in height. This is the highest cave in Slovenia, at an altitude of 1,530 m.

It is a rocky needle on the left 4 km upstream from Luče with an intermittent and fluctuating source. Water appears every 10 to 20 minutes. This natural site is particularly famous in Slovenia and throughout the former Yugoslavia. A hundred years ago, climbing it was the only way to get to Luce from Solcava. One admires the courage of the few intrepid climbers who have overcome this extreme difficulty, which is still some 40 m high.
