The Savica Waterfalls
The water comes from the Velika Savica cave, formed in a break in the Komarča rock face, as a strong karst spring. After a few rapids, it begins to slide obliquely 38 m to the mouth of the main part of the waterfall and splits in the shape of the letter A, before plunging almost vertically to a depth of 51 m. The total height of the waterfall is 78 m.
It was described by the greatest Slovenian poet, France Prešeren, in his The Baptism at Savica.
