Peričnik Waterfall


Peričnik Falls is one of the best-known waterfalls in Slovenia. It flows from a hanging valley in Triglav National Park into the glacial Vrata Valley, where the water of Peričnik Creek then flows into Bistrica Creek.
There are actually two waterfalls: Upper Peričnik Falls (Slovene:
Zgornji Peričnik, 16 meters or 52 feet high) and Lower Peričnik Falls (Slovene: Spodnji Peričnik, 52 meters or 171 feet high).
The larger, lower waterfall is usually simply known as Peričnik Falls. A view of both falls is possible by crossing Bistrica Creek and ascending the scree slope a few dozen meters.

Your tasks:

Go to waypoint 1 (N46 26.342 E13 53.628) and then, to successfully log the cache, take a picture of you or a paper with your geocaching name with the lower fall in the background and attach it to your log (don't send the picture via mail)

Then go to waypoint 2 (N46 26.358 E13 53.612) and take a picture of you or a paper with your geocaching name with the upper fall in the background  and attach it to your log too (don't send the picture via mail)

Important:
- team logs are not accepted (both images are required for each user)
- logs that do not fulfill the logging requirements (two photos from different waypoints), will be deleted without comment

- both photos must be in the found-log (not in the msg-center or mail etc.)

Update 08.05.2024: If access to one of the falls is closed (e.g. in winter), a photo of you or a paper with your geocaching name on it and the board showing the lock in the background is also o.k.

Bei nur 15 km Luftlinie bis zur Grenze am Wurzenpass war natürlich ein Besuch im Nachbarland Slowenien obligatorisch. Ausgesuchte Earthcaches und Virtuals sollten besucht werden.
Zuhause wurde ein kleines Programm zusammengestellt, mit dem sich ein Urlaubstag zwischen einem entspannten Frühstück und einem ebenso entspannten Abendessen füllen lässt. Ein Tradi und ein Multi gesellten sich noch dazu, da sie einfach ideal am Weg lagen. Als der Nachwuchs mitbekam, dass zum Schluss ein Wasserfall besucht werden sollte, den man sogar von hinten besichtigen kann, schloss sie sich nur zu gerne an.

Es wurde ein toller Tag, an dem ein Moor, ein verschwundener See, Unterwasserquellen, ein Steinbock, ein Autor und eben dieser spezielle Wasserfall besichtigt wurden.
Es hat viel Spaß gemacht, es wurden viele Fragen beantwortet und wir danken allen Ownern für das Legen und Pflegen der Caches.
Alle Antworten sind nun auf dem Weg zu den Ownern und wir verwandeln Weltkugeln, Boxen oder Geister in Smileys 😁


Google translation:
With only 15 km as the crow flies to the border at the Wurzen Pass, a visit to neighboring Slovenia was, of course, obligatory.  Selected earth caches and virtuals should be visited.
A small program has been put together at home, with which a vacation day can be filled between a relaxed breakfast and an equally relaxed dinner.  A Tradi and a Multi joined them because they were just ideally located on the way.  When the offspring found out that a waterfall was to be visited at the end, which you can even see from behind, she was only too happy to join them.

It turned out to be a great day visiting a bog, a vanished lake, underwater springs, an ibex, an author and that particular waterfall.
It was a lot of fun, many questions were answered and we thank all the owners for laying and maintaining the caches.
All answers are now on their way to the owners and we are turning globes, boxes or ghosts into smileys 😁


Google prevod:
Ker je do meje na prelazu Wurzen le 15 km zračne črte, je bil obisk sosednje Slovenije seveda obvezen. Obiskati je treba izbrane zemeljske zaklade in virtuale.
Doma so sestavili manjši program, s katerim lahko zapolnimo počitniški dan med sproščenim zajtrkom in prav tako sproščeno večerjo. Pridružila sta se jima Tradi in Multi, ker sta bila ravno na idealni lokaciji na poti. Ko je potomec izvedel, da bo na koncu obiskal slap, ki ga vidiš celo od zadaj, se jima je z veseljem pridružila.

Obisk barja, izginulega jezera, podvodnih izvirov, kozoroga, avtorja in prav tega slapa je bil odličen dan.
Bilo je zelo zabavno, odgovore na številna vprašanja in hvala vsem lastnikom za polaganje in vzdrževanje zakladov.
Vsi odgovori so zdaj na poti k lastnikom in globuse, škatle ali duhove spreminjamo v smeške 😁

Danke, Termite2712, für den Virtual-Cache sagt GiLiThoMü

Motorradfahren und Geocaching haben eines gemeinsam: Genauso wenig wie Motorradfahren nur eine Fortbewegung ist, ist Geocaching nur eine Schatzsuche.
Ich habe Glück, ich mache Beides [:)]
