Savica Waterfall
Savica Falls is a waterfall in northwestern Slovenia. It is 78 meters high and is fed by a karst spring also called Savica just above the waterfall. A large portion of water is sourced from a karst basin around Black Lake, which lies around 500 meters higher above the waterfall, because of which the spring has a relatively steady and strong flow.Photo: Kulmalukko, CC BY-SA 3.0.
