While this hike is a bit more challenging, I don't recommend it, for example, for those with kids. However, once you reach the summit, you'll be rewarded with the breathtaking views of not just one, but two beautiful lakes.

Nearby Slap Virje, you can also visit a geyser. I suggest that if you are already in the area, you should take the opportunity to explore this attraction. Not only will you learn something, but you'll also enjoy a fantastic view of the surrounding mountains.
