Predelica Canyon
Predelica stream originates high in the Mangart mountain, which can also be seen from the road when driving from Bovec towards the Predel pass. The emerald clear water of Predelica is just a small piece of the mosaic that belongs to picturesque and wild landscape of the high-mountainous Julian Alps. In the winter when the temperatures drops well below zero, its fairy-tale frozen waterfalls start to invite fearless ice climbers. But in milder seasons, the torrent offers other ways of entertainment, including Predelica canyoning.
In lower Predelica canyon, there are different possibilites of enjoying this amazing experience. Right on the threshold of entering the canyon, we’re firstly greeted by mighty boulders. A few years ago, there was a devastating landslide that erupted from the mountain to the village of Log pod Mangartom and left behind the devastation that is still visible today, which is why use of rope is necessary in this part of the canyon. Most of the time we are accompanied by various waterfalls, which make the tour even more beautiful. The grand finale awaits at the end of the Predelica canyon in a form of a divine 40-meter waterfall that will surely impress even the most indifferent guests! After a demanding but fulfilling adventure, we finish the tour in the village of Log pod Mangartom.
The interesting fact about Predelica is that due to devastating landslide in 2000, canyoning has not been possible for quite some time. Over the years, the water has cleared it up the debris and thus prepared new challenges for all canyoning enthusiasts.
