Path along the Idrijca

Print

Hi.
I'm interested if the marked path along the left bank of the Idrijca is in use (read: passable) or just Peter Pan's pious wish to avoid the role of a skittle on the asphalt road on the other side of the river.
Asking for the section Reka - Stopnik - Dolenja Trebuša.

If by chance there's already a description somewhere on the forum, at least partial, I'd appreciate a pointer to it, as I haven't found anything useful myself.
Thanks.

Ps. added map ...

Three years ago it was fine. Annual floods can damage it and make passages difficult. We must know that there are lots of gullies on this trail, which are predictable during rain. You'll probably have to look for the continuation of the path in many places. Good luck on the beautiful path.
Please describe it.

To help others who might have been in doubt just like me ... Due to my 'logistics' I tackled the path in the opposite direction from what I asked in the post.
The section D.Trebuša - Stopnik is obviously less used than Stopnik - Reka. The trail here is a bit more 'dirty and overgrown' ...

In short ... the path is ... and it is perfectly walkable. No orientation issues. Only right before reaching the first houses in Stopnik the path briefly completely deviates from the one marked on the maps. The path here steeply climbs about 40m higher up the slope. Obviously the 'original path' was too exposed at higher Idrijca water levels (guessing).
The section Stopnik - Reka is freshly tidied up and cleaned tip-top. Obviously something is happening here (maybe some trail run). Only two fallen trees remain right before the picnic spot, but work is ongoing as the workers left some equipment there.

The only downside, in my personal opinion, is unfortunately that (too) long gravel-asphalt section through Stopnik (cca 2km), which dragged on for me. I'm just more of the rugged type :-)
Otherwise .. from the bridge in D.Trebušah to the 1st bridge in Reka it's cca 11km/400m.
A little more in the photos ...


@Tulipan, Miri: Thanks!

Somewhere here the path steeply ascends higher up the slope. According to the map, the path should continue along the slope here, but I didn't see any visible continuation.11

Behind these ruins is a house with residents. They have a large dog whose chain is stretched right across the path. The dog was non-aggressive with the right approach. At least in my case.26
