Zumberak/gorjanciŽumberak (in Croatian) or Gorjanci (in Slovenian) is a mountain situated between Croatia and Slovenia. The highest peak is Sveta Gera (Trdinov vrh on Slovene side), 1178 m (3865 ft). On the Slovene side near the peak there is a 90 meter high telecommunication tower. In 1999 Nature park (Park prirode) Žumberak - Samoborsko gorje was founded on the Croatian side. A military complex near the top of Sveta Gera created by the Yugoslav People's Army was a subject of a dispute between the two new countries in the 1990s, but the escalation was prevented due to amicable diplomacy. Full border delineation between Slovenia and Croatia is still pending. The cities surrounding the mountain are Novo mesto, Metlika, Brežice, Črnomelj in Slovenia and Samobor and Ozalj in Croatia.
