The upper waterfall has a smaller drop than the lower one, but it is no less spectacular.

April 21, 2025,Triglavska Bistrica....wandern am Fuße des Triglav...😍

Today we went hiking at the foot of Triglav.
And it was simply a fantastic hike.
However, I should warn you right away, if anyone wants to follow the trail, that it involves some very narrow and steep uphill and downhill sections.
You should be absolutely sure-footed and wear good shoes.
And at the waterfall, we unfortunately discovered that the …

The tracking did not go completely well; GPS got lost near the overhanging rocks 🤷‍♀️

August 8, 2022,Slap Peričnik – Wasserfall Peričnik 💦 Runde von Mojstrana

From Mojstrana you walk along the Triglavska Bistrikca river, which enchants with its light blue shimmer. After approx. 4 km there is a relatively short but steep ascent to the Peričnik waterfall (easily doable), the second waterfall above is also definitely worth seeing. At both waterfalls you can walk behind the water flow. Originally we wanted to do a ridge …

We opted for the "alternative" route. Both waterfalls and behind the upper waterfall continued on the path. Beautiful views and a beautiful but somewhat challenging path, with a narrow path in places and a chasm on the right.

Hello, my dears,
let's go on the penultimate tour in Slovenia. This time we were on a Slaptastic tour. Slap in German means waterfall ♥️🥰. So we actually visited our first waterfall. 😱🥳😊

There should be a total of about 700 pieces 🙈. It doesn't get boring that quickly. One section is not so easy, so you should not necessarily …

September 11, 2022,Mojstrana/Slowenien: Zum Peričnik-Wasserfall und zurück

Today I went hiking in Triglav National Park. I parked just outside Mojstrana (further motorhomes are not allowed to drive, even if some overlooked the no-drive sign or ignored it). The hike to the waterfall is a walk, only the climb to viewpoints is more difficult (signposts warn that some paths are "very difficult" and "unsecured"). You can also walk …

Hike to the Peričnik waterfall. Path along the water, wow again, waterfall really, really wow!! Never seen such a high waterfall before and the cool thing was that you could walk behind it. It was quite busy, but definitely a must do. 🇸🇮🌊
