In the geological past, the Bohinj glacier dammed the Radovna River, forming a lake.
The river then broke through the limestone stack and flowed into the Sava Dolinka. It carved a 1600 m long gorge called Vintgar. The gorge is enriched by rapids, pools and erosion pots.
The steep and precipitous walls of the vintgar are 50-100 m high.
HERE you can find more information about the Vintgar Gorge, including opening hours and other useful information for your visit.

In the natural environment, you may encounter falling rocks and trees, slippery and uneven terrain, sudden changes in weather, high water levels and wild animals. The park authority maintains trails within the scope of its responsibilities and available resources but cannot guarantee your safety. Visitors are responsible for adapting their plans to the weather and trail conditions, choosing trails suited to their abilities, using appropriate equipment, staying on marked trails and acting responsibly.
