  • Nice place, easy to access. You can have hike around 4km from bottom parking place or even go under the waterfall and just hike few hundred meters towards the waterfall.

  • Astonishing! Not just your average waterfall, you can walk behind this one and have 2 different viewpoint on the large one and 1 viewpoint on the upper, smaller waterfall. Beware, the walk behind the waterfall can be slippery since water is dripping from the rocks above. People with good balance should be fine. Also a quick tip, you can park free a few kilometers before you reach the waterfall. There you can walk across the river with a bridge and follow the river for about 2km before reaching the waterfall where parking is limited and a lot busier.
  • One of the most beautiful places in Slovenia. There are several parking spaces, in late June parking was free. The route to the lower part of the waterfall is not demanding. Reachable even with young kids (4 and 7 years old). A wonderful mountain river flows next to the parking lot. Its cold water was really refreshing after the hike.
  • Such a beautiful waterfall in Bled area but a bit difficult to get there if you don’t drive. Do climb up to the upper level to see pretty view and beware of slippery. PS, no phone signal up there so you will be in an offline mode for a bit
  • I think it's a most beautiful waterfall in Slovenia. Two routes (hikes) it varies from difficult unsecured (about 700m) to difficult secured (about 500m). Both are evenly dangerous, If you are going with the child and want to see the waterfall upclose, I recommend the 500m route. You can see the waterfall from the parking spot near the house at the bottom (about 50m) just go straight. It's better to leave the car in the parking lot at bottom about 3km from the waterfall, from the parking, there is a beautiful trail through the forest near the river to the waterfall. I recommend leaving about 60-120min. If going from the parking at bottom. If you want to go from the parking spot up top then 30min. will suffice. Strongly recommend to visit.
  • Great waterfall with a great hike. The hike is pretty intense but luckily it is short (unless you want to visit the upper part of the waterfall. Can really recommend. Beautiful scenery aswell. Parking can be difficult
