About this place

The highest road pass in Slovenia, linking Kranjska Gora with the Trenta valley over the Julian Alps. Prisoners of war, most of them Russian, built the road in the First World War and put up a chapel above it; snow can close it for part of the year. Several mountain huts are close by, including Tičarjev dom and Erjavčeva koča.
