An American woman at the Great Lakes looks down on Socha.
On August 4, 2026, a 57-year-old American tourist fell into the Soča River while hiking near the Veliki Koritisa bridge in the Soča Valley. The incident occurred around 4 PM when she was walking with her 67-year-old husband. After approximately ten meters of walking, she slipped and fell about two meters into a steep bank before plunging another twelve meters into the river. She sustained head injuries. Fortunately, a nearby swimmer turned her over in the water and provided initial aid. Another swimmer and her husband arrived to assist, and together they managed to get her onto the riverbank. Local police, firefighters from PGD Bovec, and mountain rescuers from GRS Bovec were present. Using rope techniques, rescuers lifted the injured woman out of the river and handed her over to emergency medical personnel from the Tolmin Health Center. She was then transported by helicopter to the University Clinical Centre Ljubljana for further treatment.
