Starting in Lepena or the village of Soča, the 7 Days 7 Trails route takes you on an interesting trip to the beautiful Šunikov Vodni Gaj, the Lemovje farms, deserted fortresses above the Soča riverbed and other pristine locations. Soak up unforgettable views of the valley and surrounding mountains, and listen to the burbling rapids, waterfalls and pools.
To St Mary of the Snows
Behind the bridge above the Soča Basins is Vrsnik Valley, with the burbling Vrsnica and spectacular rapids, waterfalls and pools. The circular trail to the Chapel of St Mary of the Snows starts at the
stone bridge on the Soča, above the basins. Part of the trail runs on the road and part along an old mule trail. The chapel, perched on a rock edge between the settlements Pod Skalo and Na Skali, was built during World War I and restored by Italian troops before they left for the Albanian and Greek fronts. The location affords a spectacular view of the valley and the surrounding hills.
