Alpe Adria Trail Stages in the Soča Valley
The 25th stage is closed between Log Čezsoški and Magozd due to ongoing construction work on site. The closure is expected to remain until the middle of August, and in individual sections it will be obstructed at least until the end of September 2024. The stage is redirected from Log Čezsoški through Žaga to Srpenica, so this part is accessible and marked with signposts on site. You can also follow the updated trail on the app. It is not possible to hike between Srpenica and Drežnica. It is possible to take a bus from Srpenica to Kobarid – please click here, from where you can hike to Drežnica on the small local road. You can also organize a shuttle between Srpenica and Kobarid or Drežnica with a local mobility provoider (please call the ahead of time) - click here to see a list of providers. |
