  • We visited a small part of the reserve on a clear mid-March afternoon. The local climate makes the presence of snow on the ground natural in this period, despite the fact that we aren't at a great...

  • So beautiful small pond, clean, the infrastructure let you watch this precious place. Definitely worth checking when in Kranjska Gora and Slovenia overall. There is a parking near the road, so going there shouldn't be a problem. The views are worth stopping there, just check it out!
  • Zelenci "The Emerald Green Wetland". Very small alpine lake about 4 km after the Italian/Slovenian border towards the ski town Kranjska Gora . Free parking space near the "Gostilna Zelenci" about a 10 minute walk from the parking. Beautiful landscape and natural wetland surroundings.
  • Amazing piece of nature. 🌿 There are two parking places, free. To the lake, it tooks you maybe 10 minutes. In the water, you can see a lot of trouts, frogs. I was really amazed by this place.
  • This green island was formed through centuries of sedimentation of soil and water that came from the mountains surrounding it, becoming the home of the upper source of river Sava. Dense evergreen forest gives place to shallow marshes with water flowing slowly to the east. A calm, quiet, beautiful and easily accessible place, it's a pity that it isn't a bit more away from the main road.
  • Beautiful place to visit and look around, as the view of the lake and the mountains is gorgeous. Apparently the lake in the nature reserve doesn't freeze in the winter (unlike other lakes around), so it might be worth a visit then too!
