Soča pools at Deskle
Below the Ajba dam most of the Soča's water is diverted through tunnels to the Plave I and II hydropower plants, so at Deskle the old riverbed only fills fully during high water, which keeps two deep pools scoured out. The lower pool reaches about 11 m and the upper one, under the bridge to Anhovo, about 8 m. Between them lie the remains of an old bridge, and most fish life gathers in the upper pool. It is an easy, slow-river dive that the sheet especially recommends in winter, when visibility is better.
Tiefe: 0–11 m
