The "elephant head" is a rock formation in the Mostnica stream bed. For us the most beautiful or most striking place. In general, the "elephant head" is one of a generally very beautiful, picturesque streambed area with hollows, pools - with turquoise-blue water.

The Mostnica flows through the national park, swimming is not permitted on the entire route. In return, the Bohinj looks forward to a visit ... 😊
