Portraits of mountains, waterfalls, happenings and people - offered in English and Slovene.
Meeting Mountains want to tell stories that doesn’t otherwise get told. We dare to turn the stones that have been untouched for a long time. Curious foreigners may get an insight into local customs, hidden gems and special characters of the Soča Valley.
The author of the blog is local journalist Katja Humar - born and raised in the valley. She is passionate about painting articles with her colourful words, expressions and images and we are very grateful to have her on board.

Tolmin Gorges: To Hell and Back
Yes. This post is about Tolmin gorges, one of Tolmin’s main touristic attractions. No. It is not a tip, guide, or a top-five photo spot post. It is a story about the stories of the stories. Old folktales and semi-historical tales that shaped the place and emphasised the many characters of this unique nature. Welcome to the parallel worlds of wild women, devils, and Dante Alighieri’s version of hell.
