Day Trip to Gorenjska: Waterfalls and Michelin Stars

This time we didn’t go far. Just over the hill – to Gorenjska region. It was an easy day trip, with chasing waterfalls and delicious food.

Peričnik waterfall is actually 2-part waterfall. The lower one is 52 m high and the upper one is 16 m high. It is located in Vrata Valley. If you visit it in the summer season, you leave your car before the valley. There is a shuttle bus to there or you can bike or walk to it. The flow was very nice when we were there in May. Also no crowds.

Our next stop was Martuljek waterfalls. There are also lower and upper. We only went to the lower one, since it was wet and slippery. We were also limited with time.

Because the whole reason for our trip was a dinner at Restaurant Milka. A very nice experience. Started off with a drink and chef’s greetings with a great view of the Jasna lake at their lounge.

Then we moved to the dining area. The food was exquisite and the staff very nice. At the end they presented their homemade liquor, which we could try.

Restaurant Milka has 2 Michelin stars and is listed on 50 Best Discovery. Chef David Žefran has 2 Knives. All very deserved. The restaurant is only open for dinner with their tasting menu.
