Planjava () is the highest mountain of the eastern Kamnik Alps in northern Slovenia. On the western side there is a steep wall over the Kamnik Saddle (), on the eastern side runs a long ridge, and on the northern side there is a wall almost high above the Logar Valley.
History of climbing The first recorded climb was by Franz Hohenwart in 1793 with a local from Kamniška Bistrica, although it is speculated that local hunters climbed the mountain before them. Planjava is now one of the most visited peaks in Slovenia.
