This is the view from the 1,528 m summit of Veliki Risnjak in Gorski Kotar, Croatia. From the rocky summit there are fantastic views of the surrounding mountains, most of which are forested, and also out across the Gulf of Kvarner. The first half of the name, Veliki, translates as big, differentiating it from the nearby Mali Risnjak (Small Risnjak). The name Risnjak can be translated as place of the lynx.
