Geography

Šavna Peč lies on a fertile plateau on the south (sunny) side of the hills, about 100 meters (330 ft) above the steep left bank of the Sava River. It is sheltered by a similar (partly rocky) slope above it.

Notable people

Šavna Peč is the birthplace of Antón Sovrè, a Slovenian classical philologist, high school educator, and translator. [4] There is a small museum in an old granary with a standing ethnology exhibition and some of Sovrè's works. The museum and the settlement are registered as a cultural heritage site.

The Sovrè Trail (Slovene : Sovrétova pot) leads from the valley below to the village, and a traditional commemorative hike has been held on it on every first Saturday in October since 2004. [5]
