The source of the Soča river

One of the most beautiful and the cleanest karstic water sources in the Julian Alps is the birthplace of the daughter of mountains, the majestic Soča River. 

The story of the emerald green queen Soča is quite different and incredibly primal. The water that accumulates in the area of Jalovec, Šite, Travnik, and Mojstrovka springs from a cave with a small underground lake and flows through a narrow gorge, which soon opens up and accompanies the lively Soča River on its 138 km long journey. First hidden, mysterious and calm, then immediately lively, it creates waterfalls, rapids and torrents. The Source of the Soča River is a wonderful but hard to access natural sight and requires quite a lot of dexterity to be seen.
