摘要：The article is a contribution to a better understanding of the formation of mountain relief. It combines the knowledge of geography, geology, construction, forestry, history, and other fields that help provide an easier interpretation of the formation of Slovenia's alpine world. The article is limited to rockfalls, an important process in reshaping the mountain relief. Rockfalls rank among constant reshapers of the rocky mountain relief and are a part of continuous geomorphic activity. In the article, rockfalls are treated in three different time periods (prehistoric, historic, and recent), which contributes to more easily comprehending that rockfalls are a constant in the mountain world. Along with a definition of rockfalls and their classification, the first part of the article presents the causes and triggers of rockfalls and their consequences (the effects of rockfalls on the landscape). In the second part of the article, several concrete examples of rockfalls in the Slovene Alps are presented, grouped in three time periods.
