Access to starting point:
From Bovec, we drive towards Kobarid or vice versa. Before the bridge Boka (from the direction of Kobarid after the bridge) is a parking lot on which we park.
Path description:
From the starting point, we at first walk to the bridge, from which a nice view opens up on waterfall Boka. We continue on the other side of the bridge, and from there right on a wide path in the direction of Boka (on the other side of the bridge are signs for source Boka). The path at first leads us on a wide path, which quickly splits into two parts. We continue straight on the bottom unmarked path (left viewpoint on waterfall Boka), which after few minutes brings us to a river. Further, we are at first ascending on a small footpath which runs on the left side of the river (right bank), and then it vanishes. Riverbed of Boka then narrows and passages by the riverbed get interrupted by steep walls. We continue on technically a little more demanding terrain, because to move forward we have to ascend from one rock to another (carefully).
Further direction of ascent is clear, but passages are not and they vary based on water level (lower the water is, more passages are available). After few 10 minutes of climbing on wet rocks on the right side a nice passage opens. We continue on a relatively steep but poorly visible footpath which higher brings us to large boulders, which prevent relatively easy passage. Here at high water level our path ends.
And if the water is relatively low we look for the best passage over boulders and we continue the ascent by rapid river. Higher on the left side opens demanding passage (continuation by the riverbed isn't possible anymore), which is very exposed to falling stones. With great caution we ascend a level higher and "path" brings us on a little less steep slopes from which on the right side a view opens up on waterfall. Ahead we can ascend on less steep scree to the foot of walls (danger of falling stones) and from there we descend right to the waterfall.
The path is both technically and orientationally demanding and in larger part is exposed to falling stones and slipping.
