Prisojnik, Mountain summit in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia
Prisojnik is a 2,547 meter summit in the Julian Alps with two distinctive rock windows and extensive limestone features throughout its walls. The peak offers multiple climbing routes that vary in difficulty and expose different layers of the mountain's stone composition.
The mountain formed during the Triassic period approximately 230 million years ago when limestone deposits accumulated in this region. This ancient geological process created the layered stone formations visible on the peak today.

The climb starts from Vršič Pass with several marked trails offering different levels of challenge and affected by seasonal conditions. Check local conditions before heading out, as snow and ice can make the routes significantly more difficult.
The western rock window resembles the eye of a mythological cyclops, while the eastern opening displays architectural shapes reminiscent of gothic design. These natural formations have become instantly recognizable features that climbers use to navigate and identify sections of the mountain.
