Sopota Waterfall

A pretty Sopota (or Soupat) waterfall, which falls over a 60-meter wall, is hidden in a remote part between Tolmin and Baška Grapa. A neat path leads to it, the surroundings are marvelous, there are benches available for a rest and do not expect to meet many other people.

You can also come here from Tolmin through Poljubinj and Ljubinj villages.

Go up to the hill by the wooden signboard for the waterfall. Soon you come into a forest and to a lovely rest-spot with some benches, drinking water an improvised swing on a tree. Proceed on a nice footpath and in 10 minutes you reach the waterfall. A high and thin stream of water falls into a tiny pool, which is surrounded by high walls covered with plants. It is truly beautiful! Return back the same way.
