Kozjak waterfall

The Kozjak waterfalls are a protected natural treasure of Slovenia and are one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Slovenia. These 15 meters tall waterfalls are located not very far from Kobarid, above the emerald-green Soča River. With its tall, black walls covered in limestone sediments, similar to those seen in karstic caves, this well-known natural attraction gives off an image of a heavenly corner hidden from the rest of the world. Therefore, these waterfalls are considered to be the most mysterious of Slovenia’s waterfalls.

The steep walls of the Kozjak waterfalls keep a nice coolness and slightly lower temperatures, making them a great place to go for a walk on hot summer days. You can access the waterfall through a designated hiking trail. It concludes with a terrace that offers a surreal view of the rocky amphitheater with a green pool and a white beam of water. In some areas, it is accented by small wooden bridges.

The pool under the Kozjak waterfalls is unfortunately not suitable for bathing. This is done to help preserve the original experience of the waterfalls for all visitors. However, you can still swim in bathing areas next to the Soča, Nadiža, etc next to the waterfalls.

Moreover, on the way to Kozjak waterfalls, you can see the remnants of World War I trenches and various forts. Many people love this while visiting these waterfalls since it's quite hard to imagine that this peaceful and serene place used to suffer numerous battles for years. With its beautiful nature and rich history, it is no surprise that the Kozjak waterfalls have been an increasingly popular destination that appeared all over social networks.
