Učja pools at Žaga
The Učja flows in from Italy and joins the Soča at the hamlet of Žaga, and its last few pools right above the confluence are the only easy ones to reach. The dive starts under the road bridge on a gravel bottom that drops quickly to about 4.5 m, then works upstream through smaller pools to a small, deep pool below a waterfall. There the sheet describes big round boulders, a strong eddy right under the fall and a metre-long Soča trout that usually holds in it. Water is crystal clear but cold, around 15 °C in summer.
Tiefe: 0–5 m
