UPPER PART OF ILOVEC:
"Wild waterfalls in a wild gorge" are the right words
for the waterfalls of Ilovec and its left tributary Nakel. A lot of rubbel
is everywhere and the path seemed to be unpleasent. But the noise of the
falling water is a joy to hear it! Nakel brook has a serial of the cascades
and waterfalls with the height up to 7 m (25 feet).
ACCESS to the Nakel
and the upper part of Ilovec is the most rescomended from the sharp turn
of the road from Log pod Mangrtom to the Strmec. There is a rut just on
the "corner" of the sharp turn. There is enought place for a parking place
inside the turn. The rut leads above the Ilovec brook and it comes after
10 min. of walk into the trail to the Ilovec. Riverbed of Ilovec is acctually
a long geological break. Waterfall of 5 m (~17 feet) right at the and of
the trail. To reach the Nakel brook a rubbel slope of 50 m must be passed
and there is Nakel brook. Hike up to the stream is needed to reach upper
waterfalls - 30 min. of hike - boots are strongly recomended.
LOWER PART OF ILOVEC:
The lower part of Ilovec is not so "wild" as the upper
part. ACCESS is recomended from the
Log pod Mangrtom. At the end of village just follow road to the upper part
of Koritnica valley. Before the small bridge over the Ilovec turn left
and after 30 min. of walk is 8 m (~ 27 m) |
