Is this by chance a kobranka?

Viper it is. A bit below 2000m.

This one welcomed us already in March on the ledge in the SW wall of Gradiška Tura. And right on the "belay" it found space.
Really a nice specimen1

Jusk, it could be a viper

Black Gož isn't completely black, but a bit brownish yellow around the head and underside. Black Viper is completely black and that's VIPER!

Could be, especially if photographed more on coastal ends. If it was black adder, it would look rougher, this one clearly smooth. Shame head not visible. Belongs among smooth snakes, very useful and completely non-venomous.

no, photographed in Žirovski vrh. Apparently strong wind when observed. Was black, only under chin somewhat patterned.

The snake's head really isn't visible on ločanka's picture, but it is noticeable—at least I see a long thin tail. It can't be a viper then mežikanje

And on @juska's pic that black snake also isn't an adder. Also here long thin tail, characteristic of non-venomous snakes.

On one hand, separating snakes into venomous and non-venomous is quite simple. Step closer and look into its eyes velik nasmeh

"The pupil of vipers is slit-shaped and vertical, while the pupil of non-venomous snakes is round."

Venomous snakes are venomous. Non-venomous aren't venomous, that's the easiest way to distinguish them.velik nasmeh
Also, venomous ones are stocky with a short pointed tail, non-venomous have a long pointed tail.mežikanje
