Savica Waterfall
The most visited waterfall
It is the most visited and probably the most famous waterfall in Slovenia. The lakeside path is the opportunity to get to the very break of this waterfall. The waterfall is 78 meters tall. A tourist cottage is also on site. The waterfall is well hidden and can be seen at the last minute. The road to it is very easy, but uphill. I'm a little sorry for overpopulation and paid entry. The waterfall is beautiful, but certainly from my perspective Slovenia offers more interesting waterfalls. continue reading
