Waters
- Globoški Potok
The stream descends from below Skutnik above the narrow basins of the Ucja River and forms roaring waterfalls. The water falls through waterfall-forming levels about 300 m in height. The starting point is at the bridge across the Ucja River. The path leads along the left bank of the Ucja. It is not possible to cross the stream without proper rope equipment. Footwear for hiking is recommended.
- Suhi Potok
From the Zapotok Waterfalls water first flows underground in rough gravel and comes to the surface only in heavy rain. The riverbed is very wide and changes with every heavy rain. The water only comes to the surface just before joining the Soca, below the lodge Koca pri izviru Soce.
- Confluence of the Koritnica and Soča riversSušec
The Sušec stream chiselled an extraordinarily beautiful gorge on the northern side of the Stol mountain chain. Its drop is large and unbalanced and the consequence is its numerous waterfalls, torrents, rapids, pools of green-blue colour, polished channels... Water in the gorge never dries up, but the name of the stream originated from the mainly dry riverbed in the lower current.

The stream has a very large and uneven drop, and in the middle part it formed troughs where the water falls in the form of a waterfall. A large part of the river basin spreads on dark grey-brown flysch from the Cretaceous period.
Krn Lake (Krnsko jezero)
Krn Lake is located at an altitude of 1340 m. It is 400 m long and 17 m deep and is considered the largest alpine lake. Small, gluttonous fish (Phoxinus leavis) were brought to the lake between the wars as food for the trout and have acclimatised very well. Krn Lake almost completely floods the basin at the foot of Krn that is surrounded with rare pinewoods. The moments at sunset, when from the banks of the lake one can view the rocky ...

Considering the difference and diversity of the riverbed we distinguish between the upper part, which includes the area from the border crossing Predel through the upper troughs to the convergence with the Mangrt stream, the central part, stretching from this convergence along the sandbanks through the central troughs to the pool supplied by the Poševni slap waterfall and the last Predelice waterfall, and the lower part, which ...
moreGreat Soča Gorge
They are 750 m long and 15 m deep and are especially of interest for their precisely polished and sometimes overhanging walls, as well as for their narrowness, and certainly for the Soca that chiselled them and that moves somehow carelessly through them, clothed in its turquoise shades.
Access: immediately before the village of Soca (approximately 7 km from Bovec), by the road from Bovec to Trenta.
