Medvednica (pronounced [mědʋednitsa], lit. "Bear Mountain")[1] is a mountain in central Croatia, just north of Zagreb, and marking the southern border of the historic region of Zagorje. The highest peak, at 1,035 m (3,396 ft) is Sljeme.[2] Most of the area of Medvednica is a nature park (park prirode), a type of preservation lesser than a national park.[3] During Miocene and Pliocene, the mountain was an island within the Pannonian Sea.
