Babji zob

Legend

According to the legend, an old witch lived on the Jelovica plateau, gathering herbs and casting spells across the valley. One day, while gathering herbs, she slipped and fell into the depths, from where her old spells could still be heard. And, echoed by the mountains, her curse could be heard all the way to the valley: Jelovica, you shan't be as steep as before, let there be a rock at this place.

And from that moment on, the great rock "Babji zob" or "Old hag's tooth" can be seen at the edge of Jelovica, which ends toward the village of Bohinjska Bela. The name has been passed on for centuries from generation to generation. And so the popular local vantage point became the inspiration for the name of the Babji zob Inn.
