Montagne e vette in Alta Carniola

Slovenian Mountains and Peaks

Upper Carniola hosts Slovenia's most prominent summits across three major alpine ranges: the Julian Alps, the Kamnik–Savinja Alps, and the Karawanks. This collection features Triglav, the nation's highest peak at 2,864 meters, alongside Grintovec and Stol, the highest points of their respective ranges. Many peaks, such as Ojstrica and Velika Osojnica, provide vantage points over Lake Bled, while the Vršič Pass serves as a high-altitude gateway between the Sava and Soča valleys.
