Slatnik (in Slovenian pronounced as /ˈslaːtnik/) is a 1598m (5,243feet) mountain in northwestern Slovenia.[2] [3] It stands southwest of the Sorica Plateau.[1]
The name Slatnik appears in Slovenia as both an oronym and a settlement name (e.g., Slatnik, Veliki Slatnik, etc.). Like related names (e.g., Slatenik), it is derived from the common noun slatina 'spring with salty or acidic water', referring to a local geographical feature.[4]
