The trail around Osojnica hill (756 m) is quite interesting because after a 35-minute walk you reach the lake and its bathing area (without searching for parking places). You can enjoy in the diverse landscape along the way: from the panoramic path to the Megre pass, the lonely valley of Velika Zaka, the view of the lake and the island. The path along the shore offers the most beautiful views; if you continue along the Sava Bohinjka River, you can enjoy the peace and the unique natural landscape.
