The stream boasts one of the highest waterfalls in the Triglav National Park and has accumulated wild moraines in Zapoden.

The source of the stream is situated on the Zapotok plain (1385 m). Reaching a height of 73 m, this wild double waterfall is difficult to access (sometimes completely inaccessible). Hiring a guide is recommended.

There are several other waterfalls in Zapoden that are more easily accessible. The highest of them is the 18 m Slap na Suhem potoku waterfall.

In the lower course, the Suhi potok disappears underground and has accumulated a broad moraine belt. In periods of heavy rain, the stream swells and changes its course.

 

Access to the Suhi potok stream and Zapotoški slapovi waterfalls
