Gostišče Pekel - Pekel Gorge 5th waterfall (by canyon)

Access to starting point:
From Vrhnika or Podpeč we drive to the village of Borovnica. Here we turn into the village Brezovica pri Borovnici. Immediately when the road through the underpass crosses the railway track, we turn right. We follow this road to the parking lot at the end of the road.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we head onto the tourist path, which goes past the signs where the valley is described, first across a meadow. The path soon crosses the stream over a bridge. After some time, again over the bridge back to the right bank. The path then starts to ascend slightly and brings us to the smallest, barely 4 meters high 1st waterfall. The path then ascends and brings us to the junction. Left over the bridge is the second waterfall, which is 30 m away. We return to the junction, where we now head towards the third waterfall. During the ascent, steep well-secured stairs help us, which soon bring us to the third waterfall. Here stands a smaller decaying table from which there is a nice view towards the waterfall, which falls into a smaller pool.
The path ahead steeply ascends on longer stairs, which are exposed to falling stones. Then follow a few more pegs and the path brings us to the junction at the vantage point. We head onto the left path, which crosses a steep slope that is dangerous for slipping when wet. The path then brings us to the bridge, which we cross, and on the other side we start to ascend more steeply. The path then crosses the stream again over a bridge and brings us to the place where orientation is somewhat more difficult. Here there are a larger number of small paths, all of which except the correct one end quickly. The correct path leads left along the stream and with the help of a steel cable brings us to the 4th waterfall. The ascent further proceeds along a steep slope that requires a secure step. Then with the help of a steel cable we reach the next bridge over the stream. Here below us are smaller pools. The path ahead still ascends along a locally steep slope. The path then approaches the water again. Only a short descent to the stream follows, where a nice view opens up on the 5th waterfall.
I recommend descent via Pristava. From the 5th waterfall we cross the stream and on the other side ascend along a cart track to the road, where we turn right. After three minutes a wide marked cart track branches off to the right from the road, onto which we also turn. The cart track then after a short descent brings us to the road in the village Pristava. Further on we follow the signs for Gostišče Pekel.
