Very nice place, the hike is short but difficult

This is great piece of nature. The trip is very short and quite bit uphill. The final section is very difficult and secured by ropes. On top of that, it can get very busy which makes the final section pretty much undo-able. But the nature is very nice.

    Nice walk
    On the way down the Vrsic pass, stop at the cabin (great cheese strudel) and walk to start of Soča river. Nice walk, at the end with help of cable. Beautiful color of the cave lake - source of Soča river.

    Excellent Day Hike in the Park
    This is an easy hike for most people and well worth the short time and some effort to make it to the spring area. The trail leaves a quaint, small service hut a few miles up from the visitor center in Trenta. It's an easy hike for the most part but at the spring itself you will need to negotiate a short traverse using iron cables along the rock face and above the stream. It's not difficult but could be a challenge for people who have a bit of a fear of heights. However, the exposure is minimal and people of average fitness can easily make the very short section using the cables. The amazing clarity of the spring that you will find at the end is well worth the effort. Upon descending, stop at the little snack shop for some authentic and reasonably priced Slovenian fare.
