Hiking through Vrata valley
Vrata valley - Triglavska Bistrica trail
The Vrata Valley in the heart of the Julian Alps leads to the base of the northern wall of the Slovenian highest peak Triglav. It is the largest glacial redesigned valley on the north side of the Julian Alps, stretching from Mojstrana to the foot of the North Wall. On our hike the first stop will at the two waterfalls with the common name Peričnik. From Peričnik to Vrata the trail leads under the »Galleries«. The Galleries are the hollowed and sometimes overhanging conglomerate rocks, hollowed-out and eroded by the stream, which today runs deep below. The 'Aljažev dom' mountain hut in the Vrata Valley is our last stop where we'll have a lunch stop. After lunch we're going back on the on the shorter road way.
