White lake, quite secluded and off-the-beaten-path
Lake Kreda is a man-made lake in the Radovna Valley in northwestern Slovenia. The lake got its name from the chalk that was mined in the area until 1985. The digging also created a basin, which gradually filled with water and the lake appeared. The mining ceased because it was unprofitable and due to conservation concerns, but the lake remained and is now occasionally used as a recreation site.

Pokljuška soteska
2-km long and 40-m deep, carved into limestone by water flowing from the Pokljuka glaciers, the only reminder of which is the Ribščica stream, a tributary of the Radovna River.
Galetovec, Lipanca
A wooden footbridge path (dating to 1893) runs for 1600 m along the Radovna River, terminating at the Šum waterfall.
This smoothly carved ravine is 1-km long and 20-m deep, with hundreds of circular hollows known as river mills. Be careful if it is raining. The 21-m Mostnica Waterfall (Slap Mostnica) is an additional 40-minute walk through the fields to the north.
