H5 - ENERGY REFUEL IN THE WORLD OF THE KOLPA

 

Fara - Žaga - Bilpa - Dol - Radenci

Trail length:  27.6 km.

The easy route takes us along the Kolpa River along numerous energy points where you can rest and “refuel your batteries”.  For those who enjoy peace, green nature and the Kolpa River.

This route is included in the package HTN 01

SCHEMATIC MAP

From Fara, we will turn right towards Slavski Laz where several well-maintained Kočevje houses are located and then continue towards Gorenja Žaga. We can rest here, spend the night or continue on to the confluence of the Kotnica and Kolpa Rivers where the Jelovička Cave and Mihova Cave are located. We will continue onwards towards Lobič, where in addition to the lithopunctural stone we can visit the Kobilna Cave. We will soon ascend to Spodnja Bilpa. We can also view the Bilpa spring and karst cave in the Bilpa cliff, from where witches were said to have flown towards Klek, and then continue alongside the Kolpa River to Laz pri Predgradu.  The Church of St. Vid is located in the village as well as one of the numerous  lithopunctural stones, demonstrating the energy points along the Kolpa River. We can see an example of overgrown vineyards north of the village on the slope above the road. We will continue our trip to Dol, where you can view the former Venetian sawmill and old farm house with a black kitchen. The bridge has an interesting fence shaped like a boat. We will continue our route past a small camp and the former sawmill in Prelesje to the Sodevci border crossing where we will turn left towards Dečina. A typical Kočevje farmhouse can be seen on the left side of the road. It is only a good kilometre to Radenci from here.
