List of mountains in Slovenia
Alps
The Alps in Slovenia can be divided into:
- Julian Alps (Slovene: Julijske Alpe) in the northwestern part of Slovenia. The highest peak is Mount Triglav - 2,864 metres (9,396 feet) above sea.[1]
- Karawanks (Slovene: Karavanke)- a massive ridge that forms a natural boundary between Slovenia and Austria. The highest peak is Mt. Stol - 2,236 m ((7,336 feet).[1]
- Kamnik–Savinja Alps (Slovene: Kamniško-Savinjske Alpe) lie to the south of Karawanks. The highest peak is Mt. Grintovec - 2,558 m (8,392 feet) above sea.[1]
Dinarides
In the Inner Carniola, the highest peaks are Veliki Snežnik (1,796 metres (5,892 ft), part of the Snežnik plateau and the highest non-Alpine peak in Slovenia, and Suhi vrh (1,313 metres (4,308 ft)), part of the Nanos plateau. They're both part of the Dinaric Alps, a mountain chain that spans towards the southeast. The highest peak is Snežnik.
Part of the Dinaric Alps are also the Gorjanci mountain range, and in the Slovenian Istria, Mt. Slavnik (1,028 m) and Mt. Vremščica (1,027 m).

gollark: Depending on what side of the road your country uses and which way you turn, you might have to cross a lane to turn at an intersection or not.
gollark: Well, that's odd.
gollark: ... oh, right.
gollark: I don't see anything interesting about it.
gollark: Cue Y292G hysteria!
