Description of mountain:
Alničje is a 1145 m high ridge-like rise that ascends from the southwest above the Jesenice settlements of Koroška Bela and Javornik, extending northeast towards the Stamare pasture and ending at a grassy saddle below the southern slopes of Debelo brdo in the Karawanks, where there is a bench with a logbook, an emergency shelter from storms, and a small older dilapidated hut.
On these already quite extremely steep slopes of Alničje and neighboring Debelo brdo, locals recount that they once mowed grass with crampons on their feet. The forests in these areas are protected by status, meaning no felling is allowed to serve as protection against rockfalls, avalanches, etc. Right here, east of Alničje, a natural disaster similar to the one we witnessed a few years ago in Log pod Mangartom has occurred at least once in history, when the village of Koroška Bela was buried by a debris flow.
Today, the saddle named after the Alničje rise is primarily a peaceful excursion point for hikers who enjoy pleasant side paths or interesting destinations near marked trails.
