Peričnik waterfall

Peričnik Waterfall is one of the highest waterfalls among waterfalls in Slovenia. There are actually two Peričnik waterfalls: The powerful 52 meters high lower waterfall, and the upper 16 meters high waterfall. These twin waterfalls are breathtakingly beautiful all seasons long, however, when winter comes, the waterfall turns into innumerable icicles in various shades from green to blue, making the site a truly spectacular natural wonder of Slovenia.

One special thing about Peričnik Waterfall is that you can walk behind and under the waterfall and admire it from an unusual view. However, you should be very careful since the path is wet and slippery. Good hiking shoes and a bit of experience will be a big help! Moreover, you need to come prepared with a plastic bag and cloth to protect your camera, since it will get wet even though you are still at a safe distance from the waterfall. One fact you might want to know is, the waterfall has the best photo conditions before noon.

The trek to get to the Peričnik Waterfall is nice and easy. You can reach the higher and the lower waterfall in just around 10-15 minutes from the mountain hut Koča pri Peričniku. The waterfall is accessible both by bike or on foot by traveling from Mojstrana to the Vrata valley through a clearly designated track.

Location: Mojstrana, Gorenjska Jesenice, Slovenia.
