A Sunrise, a Hike and some History

A Sunrise, a Hike and some History

A planned beautiful sunrise turned yesterday into a so-so sunrise, a canyon hike and also a bit of WW2 history.

Aus einem geplanten wunderschönen Sonnenaufgang wurde gestern ein so lala Sonnenaufgang, eine Schluchtwanderung und ein bisschen WW2 Geschichte.

Sunrise + Hike + History
Triglav National Park . Slovenia

Sunrise at Lake Bohinj
Bohinjsko jezero

My app "Clear outside" had already told me the day before that there would not be many clouds for a beautiful sunrise, but after I definitely wanted to go to the Lake Bohinj, I was hoping that the app would be wrong.

Dass es nicht viele Wolken für einen wunderschönen Sonnenaufgang geben würde, das hatte mir meine App "Clear outside" bereits am Vortag gesagt, aber nachdem ich in jedem Fall zum Wocheiner See fahren wollte, hoffte ich natürlich darauf, dass sich die App irrt.

When I arrived at the lake at 6 a.m., it looked at first as if the app had actually been wrong, because the sky was full of cumulus clouds (I believe this cloud shape is called Altocumulus), which were moving from northwest over the lake.

However, just while the sun rose higher behind the horizon and these clouds have caught some morning color, unfortunately they moved to the right out of sight pretty quickly and also they faded.

Als ich um 6 Uhr früh am See angekommen bin, hat es zuerst ganz danach ausgeschaut, als ob sich die App tatsächlich geirrt hätte, denn der Himmel war voll von Cumuluswolken (ich glaube man nennt diese Wolkenform Altocumulus), welche von Nordwest über den See gezogen sind.

So wie die Sonne jedoch hinter dem Horizont höher gestiegen ist und diese Wolken Farbe gefangen haben, sind sie leider ziemlich schnell nach rechts außer Sicht weitergezogen und auch verblasst.

So I only had a so-so sunrise, but I had a very nice morning walk and these quiet and peaceful moments at the lake all to myself.

Ich hatte also zwar nur einen so lala Sonnenaufgang, aber dafür hatte ich einen sehr netten Morgenspaziergang und diese ruhigen und friedvollen Momente am See ganz für mich allein.

The most beautiful were actually the wafts of mist that hovered over the lake, even though these were unfortunately only very weak to see.

Das Schönste waren eigentlich die Nebelschwaden, die über den See gezogen sind, wenn diese leider auch nur sehr schwach zu sehen gewesen sind.

Pokljuka Gorge
Pokljuška soteska

The Pokljuka Gorge is a so-called "dry gorge" and I would not really recommend it in winter because really everything is dry. In spring, when the plants grow again and everything is green, I will certainly hike through this gorge again.

Now in winter it presents itself rather bleak and especially the first few hundred meters are more like a bad forest road.

Die Pokljuka Schlucht ist eine sogenannte "trockene Schlucht" und ich würde sie im Winter nicht wirklich empfehlen, weil wirklich alles trocken ist. Im Frühjahr, wenn die Pflanzen wieder wachsen und alles grün ist, werde ich aber sicherlich nochmals durch diese Schlucht wandern.

Jetzt im Winter präsentiert sie sich eher trostlos und speziell die ersten paar hundert Meter gleichen eher einem schlechten Forstweg.

The about 2 km long gorge is the largest fossil gorge in Slovenia and was created by the fact that a stream has withdrawn into the depths after the end of the last ice age.

Die etwa 2 Kilometer lange Schlucht ist die größte Fossil Schlucht in Slowenien und dadurch entstanden, dass sich ein Strom nach dem Ende der letzten Eiszeit in die Tiefe zurückgezogen hat.

Besides many different karst phenomena, there is also the Pokljuka Hole, which has two natural windows and two entrances.

Neben vielen verschiedenen Karsterscheinungen gibt es auch das Pokljuka Loch, das neben zwei Eingängen auch drei natürliche Fenster hat.

The wooden bridge which is called Galleries, which were built in 1930, lead to and through an impassable part of the gorge.

Zu und durch einen unpassierbaren Teil der Schlucht führen die hölzernen Galerien, welche bereits im Jahre 1930 errichtet worden sind.

Burned-down Radovna
Radovna Valley

Between Krnica near Bled and Mojstrana in the north is the Radovna Valley, a cultural heritage with some interesting sights and the last remains of the ruins of the burned-down village of Radovna.

Zwischen Krnica in der Nähe von Bled und Mojstrana im Norden liegt das Kulturerbe Radovna Tal mit einigen interessanten Sehenswürdigkeiten und auch den letzten Resten der Ruinen des verbrannten Dorfes Radovna.

During the Second World War, the residents of Radovna supported the resistance movement against the German occupying powers, also with a courier route leading to Carinthia from the village of Radovna. On September 20, 1944, the German occupiers burned the village, which is evidenced by the rest of a burned farm as a memorial.

Während des zweiten Weltkrieges unterstützten die Bewohner von Radovna die Widerstandsbewegung gegen die deutsche Besatzungsmacht, wobei vom Dorf Radovna aus auch ein Kurierweg nach Kärnten führte. Am 20. September 1944 haben die deutschen Besatzer das Dorf niedergebrannt, wovon der Rest eines verbrannten Bauernhofes als Gedenkstätte zeugt.

And I already found the first signs of spring yesterday: a few bloomed on the hill behind the ruin.

Und ich habe gestern auch schon die ersten Frühlingsboten gefunden: Ein paar Schneerosen blühten auf dem Hügel hinter der Ruine.

    The sunrise across the lake with the mountains in the background is so beautiful even if the clouds are not there.

    Luckily stone doesn’t burn and that part of the building stands as a memorial.

    Have a great week Johann @johannpiber and here’s a !tip for sharing your fantastic photography.

  • @joanstewart(75)· 2374d

    Interesting place to hike, enjoyed the history about the region. How man must get through nature to attain their own needs and wants.

    I understand that this sunrise wasn't what you were hoping for, but still, you took some beautiful photos @johannpiber. Pokljuka Hole looks amazing, but if the only way to get there is on that almost 100 years old wooden bridge, then I am not sure if I would go there.
