Tip 1 // Along Europe’s most beautiful river:<br />

THE SOČ A TRAIL.<br />

Our tour begins at the source of the Soč a // We are up and about relatively early<br />

as we don’t just want to hike, but also capture the area’s beauty on camera. We<br />

begin our tour at the exit of the Vršič pass and soon discover that October is the<br />

perfect time of year. The autumnal foliage is beautiful and provides an excellent<br />

backdrop for our pictures. We also notice that there are not many hikers on this<br />

trail so we are pretty much alone. Even better!<br />

Again and again we use suspension bridges to cross the Soč a. Slowly, the river<br />

turns from a small creek into a river. It runs through tight gorges and sun-drenched<br />

beds of gravel. Especially in the lower gorges, we are able to get really close to<br />

the beautiful Soč a. The crystal-clear, turquoise-coloured water is simply wonderful!<br />

At around noon we can no longer hold back and jump into the icy cold water<br />

wearing nothing but our birthday suits. Our “pool” is in a particularly beautiful<br />

location: at the exit of the Velika Korita gorge, shortly before the Lepenjica estuary.
