Hudinja

Hudinja — Hudinja, Vojnik, 2007

A Savinja tributary running through Vojnik towards Celje, holding brown trout and grayling in modest, unspectacular numbers — a workaday small river rather than a destination in its own right, but useful for rounding out the Savinja basin alongside the mainstem and the Dreta, and no worse a way to spend an afternoon for being modest about it.
