Sava Dolinka

The Sava Dolinka is a headwater of the the river Sava in north western Slovenia.

The 45 kilometre long Sava Dolinka starts as the Nadiža Creek in the Planica Valley under Zadnja Ponca in the Julian Alps, at an altitude of 1222 m, close to the Italian border. The stream goes underground soon after its source and breaks out again after 5 km at the height of 842 m in Zelenci, near Kranjska Gora. The Sava Dolinka flows through Kranjska Gora, Gozd Martuljek, Jesenice, between Bled and Breg and past the town of Lesce. The first in a series of hydroelectric power plants on the river, "Moste" (22.5 MW) is located near Žirovnica. It merges with the second major headwater of the Sava, the Sava Bohinjka, at Radovljica.A notable tributary of the Sava Dolinka is the Radovna River, which flows through the Vintgar, gorge near Bled.
