The Tolmin Gorge [explored 11-10-2024]

            Tolminska Korita, the Tomlin Gorge.
Probably one of the nicest gorges in Slovenia, certainly better than the Vintgar gorge near Lake Bled.
The hike was a lot harder though, it leads you up through the gorge to the bridge top of shot. A lot of climbing.
The bridge is called Hudičev Most, The Devil's Bridge and it's a narrow crossing over the gorge. It leads to the village of Čadrg which has only been accessible by car since 1966. The first car to arrive there was an old Fiat on 15th Nov 1966.
Cars were much smaller then and we watched in amusement as someone crossed the bridge in a modern car then lost their nerve, slowly turned around and came back down. It was just as well, a short while later a tractor came down although it was ancient and no wider than an old Mini.
It was one road I had no intention of trying.

The Zadlaščica river here has its own genus of fish, the Marble Trout which is protected from the introduced Brown Trout downstream by all the cascades and pools.  It flows into this river the Tolminka.
