Lake Ribnica on the mountain Pohorje

[Andy9]

From my hiking on a beautiful mountain which is actually a chain of mountains 60km long.
There are some beautiful black lakes due to the ground consisted of peat,which is not permeable for water.
The lake in the video is near 1400 m ASL.

Here is the video:

Thank you, I enjoyed it.
The lake is like our cranberry glades in the
Mountains of West Virginia. We have a lot of carnivorous plants that live in the glades. Sundew and pitcher plants are some.
My grandmother grew up near the Drava River, north of Koprivnice.

I did that from memory, I think you are right. In the past, I found out there were a lot of Ribič in Slovenia. The areas are not that far apart. How many times in the past, they were all one country anyway.
