Hiking
The way down is steep and slippery when wet. You should be surefooted. But it's worth it. It's gorgeous down here. You can't see the bridge from above. There is also a path on the other side of the bridge that leads back up to the road, but it is not marked.

The Rakov Škocjan Karst Reserve
Rakov Škocjan is a picturesque karst canyon that was formed when the cave ceiling collapsed. This is proven by the mighty natural bridges that rise 40 m above the river Rak. On a walk from the small to the large natural bridge, in the shade of hundred-year-old trees, you will witness geological processes that have been taking place for millions of years. The fact that the Rakov Škocjan area was declared the first Slovenian landscape park in 1949 proves that this 2.5 km long gorge is indeed something special.
