An easy, shady walk along the Dobra river, among ash, alder and willow, past pools and small waterfalls of a turquoise that is hard to believe. It is about two and a half kilometres each way, almost without climbing.
At the end is the Olla itself: a large pool up to five metres deep surrounded by white rock, where a swim in summer is almost compulsory. From the meadow above you can see all of it.
