Jezerščica Stream Is Part of the "Many-Named River" that Alternates the Surface with Limestone Caves of the Area, Changing Its Name Every Time It Re-emerges; here in the Basin of the Temporary Cerknica Lake on Internal Karst Region, Notranjska, Slovenija
14-july-2021: between a Covid and a Green Pass, I found a few days to be able to return to my beloved and soft area of the Internal Karst, all administered by "green" Slovenia.
There are no alpine peaks and steep valleys, but it is a very interesting sub-alpine dinaric area, both from a landscape-environmental point of view and, above all, from a meteorological and micro-climatic point of view, with a rare, marked, variety considering the small size of the territory .
The CLEARNESS of this slow and quiet watercourse, surrounded by dense vegetation, strikes us, as with that type of environment we would have expected water with characteristics of greater "stagnation"; but the fact that it (re-)emerges into the light just 1km beyond the photographed point, making its way through underground limestone filtering rocks, explains why the water has a purity (and a starting temperature) from an alpine creek in a flat area to 550m of altitude.
