The origin of the waterfall Jelovarnik
The origin of the waterfall Jelovarnik
The river Jelovarnik at its origin appears as a very small river that emerges from seven small springs. That is why this source is called the (Sedam suza) Seven Tears. At the place where the river shapes the Jelovarnik waterfall, the howling water falls from a great height, creating a breathtaking sight. The powerful and boisterous water of Jelovarnik further falls in three cascades and flows through almost indifferent nature. This scene alone, however, leaves no one unimpressed.
The waterfall itself is located at an altitude of 1,116 meters in a dense mixed forest, so reaching it can be a real challenge. However, if you decide to take the demanding paths, you will not regret it because you will see many other nameless beauties on the way to this waterfall.
