Lin Lens's video: Slivnica Slovenia 2018

Slivnica is a peak in the Dinaric Alps in Slovenia. It's elevation is 1,114 metres and is located on the southeast of Cerknica on the edge of the plain defined by Lake Cerknica. In this video my hike stops at the meadow just 10 minutes away from it's highest peak, Velika Slivnica (Big Slivnica). Unfortunately I do not have footage of Velika Slivnica however the view here will surely take your breath away. A karst cave below the summit of Slivnica, known as Witches' Cave (Coprniška jama) was described by Valvasor in his The Glory of the Duchy of Carniola (1689) as a hole where storms were made. Warm air rises from the cave in the cold winter months and condenses to form mist, a phenomenon that contributed to the creation of the local legend about the Slivnica witches, traditionally blamed for all misfortune by local farmers from hail storms to various ailments (Wikipedia).
