Vintgar Gorge...Entrance 10€, many footbridges have new metal supports and safer. Radovna river wonderful and walk through gorge great. Returned via upper path over Strma side towards Bl. Dobrava. At Lourdes chapel path to village marked yellow dots. Nice trip..nasmeh

I too today here past St. Catherine then further around Hom and back on steep side, where the path is very muddy. To the waterfall Majda should have gone a few days ago when there was still much more water than todaynasmeh

Šum Waterfall... Jusk, it was three days ago. I myself went to St. Catherine and Hom. And back the same path, because too slippery on the slope to the other side.nasmeh But the path from Vintgar direction to St. Catherine church and Hom top is marked. Signs on all paths, all directions. Path nicely passable even in this rainy time and pleasure to watch birdies on Hom top.velik nasmeh

St. Catherine's Church on Hom. I made a circular route, Hom and Boršt. In Vintgar Gorge they are repairing footbridges, I heard from the top. The path to the chapel is solitary, mostly a cart track. Back to Vintgar I went for the first time on the path that leads left from the inn. To the only walker with a dog, I moved high into the slope. Maybe I awaken memories or brighten someone's day for someone. Take table Heinz boards are also from the other side. Stay healthy!

Chapel of St. Catherine and Vintgar Gorge.... Otherwise it's currently not possible if you want to go via footbridges from Dobrava side. You must go over the steep side or past St. Catherine. Entry to the gorge is only from Podhom. Path past St. Catherine chapel is very nice, with little level ascent. Pleasant trail with views, just livestock is grazing and they have calves too.nasmeh On footbridges it's nice as always. Only with larger crowds there are possible jams or overtaking past groups. Usually everyone photographs the same motifs.nasmeh

The gorge has been closed for some time until new season, but you can get from Šum waterfall to railway bridge over Radovna, from there on it's locked. It's icy, path frozen. Radovna has low flow

Interesting from Gorje news...

FREE ENTRY TO VINTGAR GORGE FOR POTATO HOLIDAYS

For the upcoming potato holidays we have prepared a special
surprise for all nature lovers! For this year's anniversary, 130th anniversary of opening Vintgar gorge for visitors, entry to
autumn dressed Vintgar gorge will be free for all visitors from 3 to 5 November.

……In late autumn Vintgar gorge dresses in warmest shades of colors and with play of falling leaves creates special
scenes not to be missed. Besides magical autumn colors, you will feel in the gorge
true peace by the murmur of Radovna river, as number of visitors greatly reduced, so you can
fully surrender to beauty of nature and recharge with energy….
We advise,
to visit our website www.vintgar.si before visit or call us at 051 621 511, where we will gladly provide up-to-date info.

We will be happy if you share info about free visit to Vintgar gorge also with your friends
and family and visit us on this special occasion..
