The hike starts at Rogla at about 1400 meters above sea level.

|
It's not a demanding walk - it's more or less level and the path leads through some woods and across several clearings.
|
|
An ideal spot to rest.
|
|
Heading into the woods again.
|
|
It took one hour to get to the Lovrenc lake area. First, I climbed the viewing tower. You can't even see the lakes as they are hidden among the low but thick vegetation.
|
|
The ground is boggy and elevated wooden paths had to be built for visitors.

First of the lakes.

|
The grass was glowing red in the late afternoon sun.

|
Reflections.
|
|
Grass and water.

Looking back towards the tower.
|
|
I just couldn't stop taking photos. This place is really photogenic.
|
|
It was such a nice day and the light played right into my hands.
|
|
The only place to stand are the elevated paths, and if you step off them, you might sink knee-deep into the mud. I had to maneuver a bit to take some of the photos.
|
|
The camera was held high up above my head for this one.
|
|
When I was finally done with the photo session, I headed back to the tower.
|
|
The walk back took less than an hour and I just made it in time to catch the last sunrays.
|
|
A few more minutes and the sun was gone.
|
|
Cows didn't mind being photographed.
|
|
And I thought I'd be back after dark! :)
