Jerebica

Jerebica is a 2,126 meter peak in the Julian Alps located on the border between Italy and Slovenia. The mountain displays three steep rocky faces and forms part of the Kanin mountain range extending across this Alpine region.

Mountain paths through Val Rio di Lago and the Možnica valley have served as crossing routes between Italian and Slovenian territories for many centuries. These traditional passages shaped cultural and economic exchange between the two regions.

Hikers from Italy and Slovenia regularly visit this peak as part of their mountain traditions. These cross-border journeys help connect local communities across the Alpine region.

The climb is challenging and demands good endurance and mountaineering experience, especially due to the steep faces on the mountain. Visitors should prepare for sudden weather changes and bring appropriate gear, as conditions can shift quickly in the Alpine environment.

The northeastern face drops nearly vertically about 1,000 meters to Lake Predil, creating a striking rocky wall. This steep face remains visible from considerable distances and shapes the visual landscape of the region.
