gorge
Tolminska korita
Photo: Sl-Ziga · Public domain
The lowest point of Triglav National Park, where the Tolminka and Zadlaščica meet in two narrow slots.
A circular path of about ninety minutes drops into the confluence of two gorges. Highlights are the Devil’s Bridge 60 m above the Tolminka, the Bear’s Head — a boulder wedged between the walls — and a thermal spring in the Zadlaščica gorge. At 180 m this is the lowest ground in the national park, so it is walkable earlier and later in the year than the high valleys, and it is markedly quieter than Vintgar.
Steep steps beside fast water; closes after heavy rain.
The circuit descends and re-climbs the gorge on stone and timber steps with some exposure. Not passable with wheels.
