This waterfall in the Logar Valley is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Slovenia

In the very north of Slovenia, only about 80 kilometers from Ljubljana, in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, more precisely the most famous and most beautiful Slovenian valley Logar, there is an interesting waterfall at the very source of the Savinja River. Although there are as many as 20 of them in this valley, the Rinka waterfall is considered the most beautiful.

Positioned at the very end of the Logar valley, a valley that is considered the most beautiful glacial valley in Europe, the Rinka waterfall is the most famous natural attraction. With a height of 90 meters, Rinka is one of the highest waterfalls in Slovenia and is slightly smaller than Boka waterfall.

With the help of the river Savinja, which cuts its way through the lush alpine landscape, it conquers visitors with its height, orange rocks, and the wonderful beauty of its surroundings.

At the waterfall itself, you will be greeted by a magnificent sight of water pouring down a cliff, forming a crystal clear pool at the foot. The cool mist created by the fall provides a refreshing respite, especially during the hot summer months. The observation platform, on which the mountain lodge Eagle’s Nest is located, is the final position for refreshment, photography, and enjoying the magnificence of the Rinka waterfall.
