Lake valley of Triglav lakes
Triglav Lakes Valley, also known as the Seven Lakes Valley or the valley of the Seven Triglav Lakes, is one of the most iconic and protected alpine landscapes in Triglav National Park. Located between Bohinj and Trenta in the heart of the Julian Alps, this glacial high-mountain valley is famous for its lakes, rocky karst terrain, alpine meadows, fossils, rare plants and peaceful mountain atmosphere. The area has been protected since 1924, making it one of the oldest protected natural areas in Slovenia and an important symbol of Slovenian nature conservation. Although the name “Seven Lakes” is widely used, the valley actually contains more lakes and smaller seasonal water bodies, which makes the landscape even more interesting and diverse.
