Savica Waterfall
Slap Savica
A famous waterfall in Triglav National Park at the west end of Lake Bohinj, where water drops from a rock crevice in an A-shaped curtain.
Savica Waterfall is the source of the Savica River. It lies above the west end of Lake Bohinj, within Triglav National Park. Water bursts from an opening in a limestone cliff and falls about 78 meters, shaped like the letter A, making it one of Slovenia's best-known waterfalls. From the car park, it takes about 20 minutes to climb roughly 550 steps to the viewing pavilion. A ticket costs about 5 to 6 euros. The viewing platform in front of the falls is some distance from the pool, and visitors cannot get closer. The trail is usually closed in winter. In summer, shuttle buses run from Ukanc on Lake Bohinj. It can be visited on the same day as Lake Bohinj and the Vogel cable car.
