Activities in Bovec

Boka Waterfall
The most popular do-it-yourself walk in the area is to Boka Waterfall, 5.5km to the southwest of Bovec. The waterfall drops 106m from the Kanin Mountains into the valley and is almost 30m wide - it's an impressive sight, especially in late spring when the snow melts. To get there on foot, follow marked walkways B2 and S1 on the Bovec z Okolico (Bovec and Surroundings) map; mountain-bike track No 1 on the map will also take you there.
The trip up to the falls (850m) and back takes about 1½ hours, but the path is steep in places and can be very slippery.

Kanin Ski Centre
The Kanin Ski Centre in the mountains northwest of Bovec has skiing up to 2200m - the only real altitude alpine skiing in Slovenia. As a result, the season can be long, with good spring skiing in April and even May. The ski area - 17km of pistes and 15km of cross-country runs served by four chairlifts and three T-bars - is reached by a cable car in three stages. The bottom station is 600m southwest of the centre of Bovec on the main road.
