The highest twin in Slovenia! It's Friday, the weekend is here, and before I look at the next waterfall, I'd like to introduce you to this one.

Der größte Zwilling Sloweniens! Es ist Freitag, das Wochenende ist da, und bevor ich mir den nächsten Wasserfall anschaue, möchte ich euch diesen hier vorstellen.

Peričnik Waterfall
^Slovenia

Near Mojstrana, which lies in Slovenia between Krajnska Gora and Jesenice (a link to Google Maps is at the end of the post), you will find the Peričnik Waterfall / Slap Peričnik, when you drive through the village to the valley in the south. From Mojstrana you drive on a partially paved and partially gravel road for a few miles until you come to a roadhouse and then parking left hand side of the road. From the end of the parking lot you can already see the big waterfall and of course hear it.

Bei Mojstrana, das liegt zwischen Krajnska Gora und Jesenice (ein Link zu Google Maps ist nach dem Beitrag), findet man den Peričnik Wasserfall / Slap Peričnik, wenn man durch den Ort in das Tal Richtung Süden fährt. Von Mojstrana fährt man auf einer zum Teil asphaltierten und teilweise auch Schotterstraße ein paar Kilometer bis man zu einem Rasthaus und anschließendem Parkplatz linkerhand der Straße kommt. Vom Ende des Parkplatzes kann man schon den großen Wasserfall sehen und natürlich auch hören.

Actually, I should say "Peričnik waterfalls" because they are "the biggest twins in Slovenia": the waterfall consists of two waterfalls lying one above the other.

Eigentlich sollte ich "Peričnik Wasserfälle" sagen, weil es sich um "die größten Zwillinge Sloweniens" handelt, denn der Wasserfall besteht aus zwei übereinander liegenden Wasserfällen.

After a ten-minute walk through the forest you reach the mighty waterfall, which is considered one of the largest waterfalls in Slovenia with a height of 52 meters (170 feet), and behind which one can also walk ... and get wet 😉

Nach einem etwa zehnminütigen Fußmarsch durch den Wald erreicht man den gewaltigen Wasserfall, der mit 52 Meter Höhe als einer der größten Wasserfälle Sloweniens gilt, und hinter dem man auch durchgehen und nass werden kann 😉

If you also want to see the second, much smaller 16 meter (52 feet) high waterfall, continue up the path. The relatively leisurely forest path becomes a short but rather steep climb, but at the top you will be rewarded with a kind of plateau with a smaller waterfall behind which you can also pass and get wet. The stream then flows over the plain until it plunges into the depths at the edge.

Wer auch den zweiten, mit 16 Meter Höhe viel kleineren Wasserfall sehen will, der geht den Weg weiter nach oben. Der relativ gemütliche Waldweg wird zu einem kurzen, aber ziemlich steilen Steig, aber oben wird man mit einer Art Hochebene mit einem kleineren Wasserfall, hinter welchem man auch durchgehen und nass werden kann, belohnt. Der Bach fließt dann über die Ebene bis er sich am Rand in die Tiefe stürzt.

If you are particularly brave, you can venture right to the edge, although I advise great caution because of the loose ground.

Wer besonders mutig ist, der kann sich ganz an den Rand vorwagen, wobei ich jedoch wegen des lockeren Untergrundes zu großer Vorsicht rate.

❖ click the image for fullsize view ❖

Although the path behind the waterfall looks dry, I would advise light rain gear because the people who just walked through were all wet 😉

Obwohl der Weg hinter dem Wasserfall eigentlich trocken aussieht, würde ich zu leichter Regenbekleidung raten, denn die Leute, die da gerade durch gegangen sind, waren alle nass 😉

No, I wanted to walk behind it, but then a lot of tourists came, and I left that place to come back on another day 😉 On one photo you can see the first group of tourists walking behind the waterfall.

Once again, I have another reason to visit Slovenia 😍
All pictures are very beautiful, but number 9 (I count them!) is my favorite!

Where are you going to on this weekend?

[johannpiber]

Good evening and thank you so much, @zirochka 🙂
I like this photo too - it was not easy to make, because the foreground was so dark and you can see the bright sky.
For tomorrow I have planned a hike to two waterfalls, of course in Slovenia 😉

[zirochka]

Are you there now? On vacations?
I am going to a day trip tomorrow, not far from Kyiv. But they promise we'll visit picturesque places. Hope the weather will be better, as today it was mist all day and very wet.
Good luck to you for tomorrow and enjoy your weekend!

[johannpiber]

Oh no, I am not on vacation - Slovenia is just half an hour away from my home, and the parking lot where I will begin tomorrow's hike is another half an hour drive away 😉
I wish you also good luck and nice weather for your trip tomorrow. Have a good night, @zirochka 🙂

[kaminchan]

Very dramatic waterfall! The water flow seems very strong with loud noises. The water must be too cold for swimming in the pond below! The rainy season there must have been quite wet too!

[johannpiber]

Yes, it was very loud there, @kaminchan, you couldn't speak to other people without shouting.
The pond it soo small to swim, and I wouldn't want to swim in there anyway, because it's too cold and the water falls in there very hard.
We don't have a rainy season - it rains every now and then over the year, sometimes more, sometimes less and the last weeks have been quite wet, as you say 😉

Ich danke dir vielmals, @kadna 🙂
Wenn man dort ist, bevor die Touristenmassen am Morgen aufwachen, dann ist man ganz alleine und es ist für mich wirklich angenehm und entspannend, einfach dort zu sitzen oder zu stehen und dem Wasserfall zuzuschauen.
Überall gibt es wunderschöne Wasserfälle, aber ich besuche am liebsten die in Slowenien, weil es für mich einfach näher ist, und weil dort viele Wasserfälle auf relativ kleiner Fläche zu finden sind ;)

Because the waterflow always depends on the available water I cannot say, how many water flows or how fast it falls down. But when I am there next time, I will take a bucket with me and tell you how many times I coult fill it in one minute 😉
