It is a quiet spot to stop and watch the water drop over the rocks, away from the busier sights of the area. Expect a short walk on forest paths to reach it, so sturdy shoes are useful.
Otok Cave (Otoška jama) is a karst cave in the Primorsko-notranjska region of southwestern Slovenia, on the Notranjska karst near Postojna. It is a quieter stop for visitors interested in the underground landscape of this cave-rich area. Check access conditions locally before going, as the cave is not a standard show-cave walk.
Pivka Jama is a karst cave in the Primorsko-notranjska region of inner Slovenia, where the Pivka river flows underground. It belongs to the same karst landscape as the better-known caves around Postojna, a few kilometres to the south. Expect a walk down into a collapse doline and along underground passages, so bring sturdy shoes and a warm layer.
Black Cave (Črna jama) is a karst cave in the Primorsko-notranjska region, part of the cave landscape around Postojna. It is known for darker passages than its neighbours, and it belongs to the wider Postojna cave system. The cave lies just north of Postojna in Inner Carniola, and access is usually arranged as an organised visit rather than an independent walk.
Najdena jama, whose name translates as "Found Cave", is a karst cave in the Osrednjeslovenska region of central Slovenia. It lies in the karst landscape south of Ljubljana, in the area around Planinsko polje and Logatec. Treat it as a point of interest on a walk through the surrounding karst rather than a show cave, and check access locally before setting out.
Postojna Cave is a large karst cave system on the edge of the town of Postojna in the Primorsko-notranjska region. Visitors travel deep into the cave by a small underground train before continuing on foot past halls of stalactites and stalagmites, and the cave is also known as home to the olm, the blind cave salamander. It is an easy day trip from Ljubljana, and the visit is a guided underground walk on paved paths.
Viševnik is a mountain summit in the Julian Alps above the Pokljuka plateau in the Gorenjska region, used as a viewpoint over the surrounding peaks. From the top the view opens toward Triglav and the high ridges of the Julian Alps. It is reached on a mountain hike, so plan for a proper ascent with suitable footwear.
Planina Cave is a karst cave in the Notranjska region, near the village of Planina by Planinsko polje. It is a water cave, where underground rivers flowing through the karst meet and emerge as the Unica river. The cave lies a short drive from Postojna and suits visitors interested in the Notranjska karst beyond the better-known show caves.
