    Kamniška Bistrica spring

    Drive to Stahovica and follow the road straight toward the end of the valley past the Calcit factory. The springs are where the road ends. Park and find a quiet spot near the water to wait for the light.

  2. 15:53

    Kamniška Bistrica spring

    The golden light begins at 15:53. Watch the sun set toward the WSW, illuminating the artificial lake and the lime rock where the water emerges from different places.

    Predaselj valley

    Walk 16 minutes SSE from the springs into Predaselj valley. This steep, narrow valley cuts into the rock, offering a dramatic contrast to the open lake as the light fades.

Local tip

Public transport to Kamniška Bistrica is infrequent. If you take the bus to Gornij Grad, ask to be sure it stops there. The stop is the last in the valley. Check the schedule carefully before you go.
