Virje Waterfall

Virje Waterfall

The Virje Waterfall is located on the Glijun Stream, near the village of Plužna. The Glijun Stream is one of the rare karstic springs that never dry up. The spring water, which emerges among many stones of glacial material, reaches up to 7ºC and is very cold. Nevertheless, many are brave enough to plunge into its depths.

Vitovsko jezero Lake/Vitovlje Lake and St. Mary’s Church

Many idyllic locations in this country really show how beautiful Slovenia is. We recently discovered one such "pearl" near the town of Nova Gorica, the Vitovsko jezero Lake/Vitovlje Lake. It is a crystal-clear 10-metre (10-yard) long lake located in the middle of a forest. Above it stands the beautiful St. Mary’s Church.
