Janez Trdina (29 May 1830 – 14 July 1905) was a Slovene writer and historian. The renowned author Ivan Cankar described him as the best Slovene stylist of his period.[1] He was an ardent describer of the Gorjanci Mountains and of the Lower Carniolan region of Slovenia. Trdina Peak (Slovene: Trdinov vrh, Croatian: Sveta Gera), the highest peak of Gorjanci Mountains, situated on the border between southeastern Slovenia and Croatia, was named for him in 1923.
