Veliki Snežnik, Mountain summit in Dinaric Alps, Slovenia.

Veliki Snežnik is a 1,796-meter peak in the Dinaric Alps in southwestern Slovenia. It forms the highest point of the Snežnik limestone plateau and dominates the surrounding landscape.

After the breakup of Yugoslavia, the mountain lay on the border between Slovenia and Croatia, and crossing it became difficult. Before that division, a path called "Put prijateljstva" (Road of Friendship) linked Snežnik with the Croatian Snježnik in the Gorski Kotar range. A former military building stands on the summit.

The lodge at the summit is the Zavetišče na Velikem Snežniku, a mountain hut built in 1961. The Slovenian source names the hut on the peak Koča Draga Karolina na Velikem Snežniku. A former military building also stands on the summit.

A marked trail starts from Sviščaki village and leads to the summit with reasonable access for hikers. The climb is best done during warmer months when conditions are more stable.

The summit holds a former military building and, since 1961, the Zavetišče na Velikem Snežniku mountain hut. At night the view reaches the lights of Portorož, Piran and Koper, and the white rocky top rises alone out of the dwarf-pine belt.
