Mokrica (1,853 m) is a prominent yet relatively little‑visited peak in the southern part of the central ridge of the Kamnik–Savinja Alps, where the steep slopes above the Kamniška Bistrica Valley form one of the most rugged relief sections of the range. The mountain is especially known for its sharply cut and dynamic eastern side, where several avalanche and scree chutes descend from the upper ridge — among them Črni, Veliki and Farji plaz — giving the slope a distinctly wild high‑alpine character. These chutes are shaped by a combination of steep grassy and scree terrain and strong erosion caused by snow slides and torrential runoff.
East of Mokrica rises Kompotela (1,989 m), with which Mokrica forms a transitional ridge between the Krvavec area and the higher alpine world of the Grintovec group. This part of the range is open and expansive, marked by long grassy ribs and deeply incised gullies that drop either toward the Kamniška Bistrica Valley or toward the secluded basin of Korošica.
A special point of interest is the southern slope of Mokrica, where Medvedja jama (Bear Cave) lies above the Korošica Valley. This cave is an important archaeological site, containing traces of human presence dating back to the Stone Age. It belongs to a broader system of high‑mountain shelters that prehistoric inhabitants likely used seasonally, taking advantage of nearby pastures and natural passages between valleys.
Mokrica thus combines the natural features of steep alpine slopes, the geological dynamism of avalanche‑shaped terrain, and the cultural‑historical significance of Medvedja jama. Positioned between Kompotela, Krvavec and the ridge leading toward Kalški greben, it forms an important element in understanding the relief structure of the southern Kamnik–Savinja Alps and offers a compelling destination for those who appreciate quieter yet distinctly characteristic mountain landscapes.
