The most popular and picturesque mountain road of Slovenia goes from Kranjska Gora up to the Vrsic Pass (1611 m above the sea) and then down to Soca Valley.. It was built during WW1 by the 10 thousands of Russian war prisoners. Many died. This road is a challenge for the drivers: 24 cramp switchbacks on the one side and 26 on the other! I experienced great views, and on the pass there was 1,5 m high snow on both sides of the road. Then I was driving along beautiful Soca and up to the Predel Pass on Italian border. Great panoramas again, but the final high road to Mangart was blocked by avalanche…. Down in the valleys I still was able to see Boka Waterfall 106 m high. So Savica isn’t the highest fall of this country!
