Vipava at Steske (Pekel gorge)
In the narrow Pekel section of the Vipava valley, below vineyards, a weir by a nicely restored mill deepens the river to about 4 m. The deepest spot is a bend with large boulders next to the suggested parking place; downstream the bed is covered in big pebbles and upstream it gradually shallows. Underwater plants are plentiful and visibility is good at low water, but the many fish are very shy. The bed also holds debris from a former tool factory and the First World War.
Tiefe: 0–4 m
