Golica Mountain (German: Kahlkogel) is a 1,835 m (6,020 ft) peak in the western Karawanks, in the Alps, on the border between Slovenia and Austria, above the Slovenian town of Jesenice. It is known primarily for its fields of wild white daffodils (depicted on the stamp). 250 m (820 ft) below the summit, at an altitude of 1,582 m (5,190 ft), there is a mountain refuge.
