Šunik Water Grove / Šunik-Wasserhain (Šunikov vodni gaj, Slovenia)

July 2019 · 5 min read · Bovec

Today, after a few weeks, I finally made another trip to Slovenia to the Triglav National Park. I had decided to visit the Šunik water grove (Šunik water hurst - Šunikov vodni gaj) in the Lepena Valley and later the Mlinarica Waterfall in the Soča Valley.

Heute habe ich nach ein paar Wochen endlich wieder einmal einen Trip nach Slowenien in den Triglav National Park gemacht. Ich hatte mir vorgenommen, den Šunik-Wasserhain (Šunikov vodni gaj) im Lepena Tal, und danach den Mlinarica Wasserfall im Soča Tal zu besuchen.

Today there is the first part with photos from the area of the Šunik Water Grove.

Heute gibt es den ersten Teil mit Fotos aus der Gegend des Šunik-Wasserhaines.

In the Soča Valley you drive at the Great Soča Gorge (Velika korita Soče) into the Lepena Valley. After about 3 kilometers on the right is a small gravel parking lot where you can park your car.

Im Soča Tal fährt man an der Großen Soča Schlucht (Velika korita Soče) in das Lepena Tal. Nach ungefähr 3 Kilometern ist rechts ein kleiner Schotterparkplatz, wo man sein Auto abstellen kann.

From the parking lot a flat forest path leads along the stream in about 5 to 10 minutes to a small wooden bridge.

Vom Parkplatz führt ein flacher Waldweg entlang des Baches in etwa 5 bis 10 Minuten bis zu einer kleinen Holzbrücke.

If you go over the bridge, you can go left to the circular path, or right to the Šunik creek.

Wenn man über die Brücke geht, kann man nach links den Rundweg entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn gehen, oder nach rechts zum Bach Šunik.

From the bridge you can either walk along the Lepenjica creek (clockwise or counterclockwise), which should take about 45 minutes, or after the bridge, turn right, after a few hundred meters cross the bridge over the Šunik stream and walk then either on the way along the creek, or you walk like I did right on and also in the creek.

Von der Brücke kann man entweder den Rundweg entlang des Baches Lepenjica gehen (im Uhrzeigersinn oder entgegen), welcher etwa 45 Minuten dauern soll, oder man geht nach der Brücke nach rechts, überquert nach ein paar hundert Metern die Brücke über den Bach Šunik und geht dann entweder am Weg entlang des Baches, oder man geht so wie ich direkt am und im Bach.

If you want to go in the creek, then you should be a bit practiced in climbing and wearing sturdy shoes. The rocks are smooth and sometimes dangerous slippery, but fortunately often overgrown with moss.

Wenn man im Bach gehen will, dann sollte man aber etwas geübt im Klettern sein und feste Schuhe anhaben. Die Felsen sind glatt und zum Teil gefährlich rutschig, aber glücklicherweise zwischendurch immer wieder mit Moos überwachsen.

But the more dangerous way through the stream also reveals beautiful small and larger waterfalls and cascades.

Aber der gefährlichere Weg durch den Bach offenbart auch wunderschöne kleine und größere Wasserfälle und Kaskaden.

That was the first part of my trip today. In my next post I want to show more photos of the waterfalls in the stream Šunik, and of course a few waterfall photos of the circular route, which I walked only partly this time.

Das war der erste Teil meines heutigen Trips. In meinem nächsten Posting will ich weitere Fotos der Wasserfälle im Bach Šunik zeigen, und in der Folge natürlich auch ein paar Wasserfallfotos vom Rundweg, den dieses Mal nur zumTeil gegangen bin.
