Lepena - Great Soča Gorge

Access to starting point:
From the Trenta–Bovec road we drive to the village of Soča, where signs for Lepena direct us to the left (from the Bovec side to the right) steeply downhill. The road then crosses part of the Velika korita over a bridge and quickly brings us to a marked parking lot, where we park.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we head back along the road by which we arrived and follow it to the place where the road crosses the Velika korita. Here we will notice a tourist sign by the road that directs us onto an initially wide path that runs along the edge of the Velika korita Soče. The path mostly runs through the forest and approaches the gorges only at viewpoints (careful - danger of slipping into the raging river). A little further, the path from the main road between Trenta and Bovec also joins via a suspension bridge. We continue along the right side (left bank) of the Soča River and the path quickly brings us to the beginning of the gorges.

We recommend: trips from the same starting point, similar trips, summit register
