"Lepena Valley" Lepena by KristaB

Lepena Travel Guide: 11 reviews and 29 photos

Lepena is only about 6 km long glacier carved valley that stretches along Lepenjica stream which flows into Soca river.

It is a peaceful unspoiled place with very few inhabitants who grow sheep and some offer rooms for tourists. This valley, even more than Trenta valley, is tucked away under mighty mountains which loose their bright white snow caps only during few months of summer.

You 'finished' your glass or the three liters? That would have made you a true 'mountaineer'! Ms Nautica;-]
