    Plužna Lake or Plužensko Lake is a water reservoir near the Virje waterfall near Bovec. The lake is fed by the Gljun stream and has a constant temperature of 5.5 degrees. From the lake you can enjoy a beautiful panoramic view of the mountains.

    Swimming is not possible in this lake!

    The water of the lake flows steeply down a kilometer-long concrete canal into the Plužna hydroelectric power station, which has been in operation since 1931.

    The film Narnia was filmed on this stream at the mouth of the Soča river.

    The reservoir's water comes from the Glijun Stream, fed by subterranean waters in the Kaning Mountains. The stream is one of the rare karst springs that never runs dry. The lake's water flows via a kilometer-long concrete canal into the Pluzna hydroelectric power plant.
