Geocache Description:


Reka Kamniška Bistrica izvira na treh mestih, najbolj znan pa je zagotovo njen glavni izvir, ki se nahaja v bližini doma v Kamniški Bistrici.

Na začetku boste opazili majhno umetno jezero, voda namreč izvira izpod številnih skal, ki so prekrite z mahom, na večjih balvanih pa rastejo smreke. Višina vode v jezeru je odvisna od padavin in letnega časa. Kraški izvirski tok nato kmalu ustvari majhne slapove in brzice.

Voda je zelo čista in naj bi imela blagodejno energijo, zato se ne čudite, če vidite ljudi, ki se kopajo tudi v zimskem času, ko ima voda le 2°C. Za nekaj "dolgih" minut se potopijo v vodo, kjer ne plavajo, temveč samo stojijo do ramen v vodi. Radiestezisti pravijo, da je Kamniška Bistrica energetsko zelo močna, še posebej pri izviru reke in pri bližnji kapelici.

Okoli jezerca se lahko sprehodite, vendar bodite previdni zaradi mokrih tal. Lahko pa se odpravite tudi do čudovite soteske Predaselj, ki jo Kamniška Bistrica oblikuje nekoliko nižje. V bližini boste našli tudi čudovit 40-metrski slap Orglice in več manjših slapov ter tolmunov.

Čudovit izlet lahko podaljšate z vzponom na bližnje planine ali gore: na vzhodu na bližnjo Veliko Planino, Kamniško sedlo in Planjavo, na zahodni strani pa vas vabita Kokrško sedlo in Grintovec. Na koncu izleta se lahko okrepčate z dobrotami v planinskem domu.

The Kamniška Bistrica River originates from three locations, but its main source, which is located near the Kamniška Bistrica home, is undoubtedly the most well-known.

At the beginning, you will notice a small artificial lake, but if you explore the surroundings above it, you will be pleasantly surprised. Water emerges from under numerous moss-covered rocks, while spruce trees grow on larger boulders. The karstic source soon forms small waterfalls and rapids. The water level in the lake depends on rainfall and the season.

The water is very clean and is believed to have beneficial energy, so don't be surprised if you see people bathing even in winter when the water temperature is only 2°C. However, they bathe by immersing themselves in the water for a few minutes, standing up to their shoulders in the water during these few "long" minutes. Dowsers claim that the Kamniška Bistrica River is energetically strong, especially at its source and near the chapel.

You can take a walk around the lake, but be cautious due to wet ground. You can also visit the beautiful Predaselj Gorge, formed by the Kamniška Bistrica River slightly downstream. Nearby, you will find the stunning 40-meter Orglice waterfall, as well as several smaller waterfalls and pools.

You can extend your wonderful trip by hiking to nearby meadows or mountains. To the east, you can explore the nearby Velika Planina, Kamniško Sedlo, and Planjava, while on the western side, Kokrško Sedlo and Grintovec await you. At the end of your excursion, you can replenish yourself with delicious treats at the mountain lodge.
