Virje waterfall is another in a series of magical locations in Slovenia and the right choice for all those who love natural beauty, relaxation and good photos. Virje is one of the most photogenic waterfalls in Slovenia.
Virje waterfall fed by the Glijun stream, one of the few karst springs that never dries up. That's how he creates 20 meters wide and 12 meters high strand waterfall, under which a charming pool of green hues is formed, trapped between lush growth and moss-covered rocks.
The spring water of the Glijun stream, which comes to the surface between many stones of glacial material, reaches a maximum of 7 degrees Celsius, so the water in the pool under the waterfall is ice cold, and bathing Not allowed (despite the fact that the scenery is extremely inviting). The waterfall is an exceptional gem of nature, so let's preserve its beauty for posterity!
