Itinerary description

Show original
This is a very simple route that travels at the foot of the Alps through different rural environments. We can visit the villages of Radece and Podkoren and the different meadows and forests around us. It has the incentive to reach Lake Zelenci with its waters reflecting the surrounding peaks.
The route begins next to the church of Kranjska Gora, it is necessary to cross the town, the main road and the river Sava and immediately we find indications of different local paths. We will follow the trail number 4 and 10 for a while.
At the entrance we pass a track that crosses a magnificent beech grove and we reach an echocamp, later we cross pastures where we can observe different wooden constructions to store wood or iron. We turn right and continue past meadows, cribs and small huts until we reach the town of Podkoren that we cross admiring its square and a handful of traditional houses.
We leave the town by an asphalted track and return to cross the highway 202 and return the river. We turn right after crossing the river through a bicycle lane and we walk parallel to the river and the road until we reach a crossroads on the right that will take us to Lake Zelenci where the Sava River is born. To reach the lake, we cross the reserve, an area that is very humid and with abundant vegetation. The lagoon set is magnificent on this day that made us foggy and cloudy. The greenish waters, reflect the surrounding peaks (Ponca and Jalovec) and the watch tower allows us to shelter and enjoy good views in a magical and quiet place.
From here we have been a while for the nature reserve until we recover the track where we arrived, we have been surrounded by mountains, farms and cribs to reach the village of Radece, very close to Austria and also With some interesting constructions, the assertor, the church ...
From here you can return along the same road to Kranska Gora, it would be 3 km more, although due to the inclement weather we have had to return to the parking lot of Lake Zelenci where we had left a car.
This is a simple route, with little slopes, which offers many possibilities to get rid of or stop to rest in the villages and cribs we find along the way. Even so, it is a remarkable journey through the views of the Alps that surround us throughout the route, the wooden constructions and nativity scenes and the wonderful Zelenci surrounded by vegetation.
