Slap Savica, found in the northwestern part of Slovenia, is a magnificent, 78 m high waterfall. It derives its water from a karst spring called Savica located just above the falls.

The majority of the water comes from the karst basin surrounding Black Lake, which sits approximately 500 meters higher than the waterfall. This ensures that the spring maintains a consistent and forceful flow. The water travels underground towards the spring, splitting into two sections.

The waterfall then continues as a stream with the same name, eventually merging into Lake Bohinj, serving as its primary water source. Lake Bohinj further contributes to the Sava Bohinjka, which ultimately combines with the Sava Dolinka to form the Sava River.

To visit the waterfall, you can access it from the Savica lodge, which is conveniently located in the western part of Lake Bohinj. It is a short 15-minute walk from the lodge to reach the waterfall, with an entrance fee required for entry.
