INFO CENTER BLACK OLM

Jelševnik (Črnomelj)

It is located at the source of Jelševnik on the Zupančič homestead, where black olm regularly appears in the springs during nighttime feeding. On the patio of the homestead, visitors can view an interactive presentation of the black olm, its habitat and its threats. They can walk along the wooden path around the Jelševnik spring to the observation tent, where one can observe the black olm in nature using IR technology. Visiting of the info center is only upon prior arrangement. Guided tours last for one hour, and school groups are welcome to conduct a field trip at the homestead.
