Pokljuka Gorge
Pokljuška soteska
A limestone gorge in the forest northwest of Bled, with a natural stone bridge and caves. It is free to visit, uncrowded and ideal for a half-day easy hike.
Pokljuka Gorge is one of Slovenia's longest fossil gorges, with no permanent water flow today. It stretches about 2 km and features the natural stone arch Pokljuška luknja, caves and wooden ladders and walkways between the rock walls. The shaded forest makes it pleasant in summer. Admission is free. Start from the car park near Krnica or Zatrnik. The loop takes about 1.5 to 2 hours, and visitors often combine it with the Tröglav Gorge or the Pokljuka Plateau on the same day. The path has rocks and tree roots, so wear sneakers. It can be slippery after rain.
