The Slap hiking trail

The Slap nature trail (Slap is the Croatian word for waterfall) runs through the Lovranska draga area, one of the most beautiful and most impressive torrential valleys on the eastern slopes of Mount Učka. Even today it is still being shaped by the force of the watercourse.

The trail leads to a waterfall in a stream that runs through the canyon and flows into the sea at Medveja.

 

 

The trail continues to the rest area next to this attractive waterfall, past some sweet chestnut plantations, an oak and hornbeam forest, and over old terraces that were once used for agriculture.

height above sea level: 359 m

trail length: 800 m
