Martuljek waterfalls
Below mountain Špik - one of the most attractive Slovenian mountains, lie two majestic waterfalls named the Martuljek waterfalls. The Upper Martuljek waterfall, which cascades down over 110 meters of sheer rock, is particularly impressive. The route there is pretty simple, but the route to the area around the waterfall is only suitable for experienced mountaineers. The Lower Martuljek waterfall plunges over the 400-meter-long, 50-meter-high Martuljek gorge, which is made of limestone. It is recommended to visit both waterfalls in the late spring when they are the most abundant due to the melting snow.
Martuljek waterfalls are breathtaking in every sense of the word. The two waterfalls are beautiful, and the cold wind that the waterfall made will literary take your breath away. However, many people are excited to visit these waterfalls because of the trail that leads to them. The scenery of the forest is amazing, as many feel like they were jumping into a scene in the Lord of the Rings with a lot of green moss on the huge rocks while walking in the woods. The whole experience gives people a special kind of energy, almost fairytale-like.
Martuljek waterfalls can be reached with sports shoes but it is better that you have proper hiking shoes. And a wonderful trip to the waterfalls is not complemented without homemade food from a well-known ‘Pri Ingotu’ cabin and a visit to the charcoal pile on the way. one note though, drones are also not allowed here.
Location: Triglav National Park, Gozd Martuljek, Slovania.
