Komna is a mountain karst plateau in the Julian Alps in northwestern Slovenia. It has an elevation from 1300 m to 1750 m. It has a triangular shape and rises above the Bohinj Basin. To the east, it continues into the Triglav Lakes Valley. The lowest measured temperature in Slovenia was recorded at Komna in 9 January 2009: -49 C.
Name
The name Komna is derived through ellipsis from **Komьna (planota)*; the adjective *komьna comes from the Slavic common noun *komъ 'hill, mountain, elevation', and the second element means 'plateau'. The name therefore etymologically means 'mountain (plateau)'.
Lodge
The Komna Lodge stands on Komna at an elevation of 1520 m. It is operated by the Ljubljana Matica Alpine Club.
