The Logar Valley (Slovene: Logarska dolina) is a valley in the Kamnik Alps, in the Municipality of Solčava, north of Slovenia, near Austrian border. In 1987, the valley received protected status as a landscape park encompassing 24.75 km² (9.56 sq mi). The Logar Valley is a typical U-shaped glacial valley. It is divided into three parts: the lower part is named Log, the middle part Plest (it is a mostly wooded area), and the upper part Kot (it is a wooded area with scree slopes). Altogether some 35 people live on the isolated farmsteads in the valley. The Logar Valley is ringed by some peaks, among which are the Planjava (2,394 m or 7,854 ft), the Ojstrica (2,350 m or 7,710 ft) and the Krofička (2,083 m or 6,834 ft), and it terminates in a head wall beneath the Okrešelj Cirque, where the Savinja River starts at an ice-cold spring at an elevation of 1,280 meters and flows to Rinka Falls.
