This small hamlet on the upper Soča River deep in the Julian Alps, Trenta sits within Triglav National Park and serves as home to the park's Trenta Lodge information centre and the Juliana Alpine Botanical Garden. A miners' church dedicated to the Virgin Mary of Loreto, built in 1690 by the Counts of Attems who owned the local bloomeries, stands above the village on the road toward Vršič Pass. The area has been settled since the 14th century, with ironworks documented as early as 1579.
