We would like to thank the local people for helping us locate the ponor and for information about the history of the local spring Izvor Ljeljenak, which was of great interest to the Austro-Hungarian Karst Engineers. A return visit is planned to record further details, before all is lost. |

6.0.4.1....PONOR
"LjELjINAČKI POTOK" - "LjELjINAČKI POTOK" PONOR -
ПОНОР "ЉEЉИНАЧКИ ПОТОК" :
GPS Co-ordinates :..43° 05' 17"N. : 018° 36' 26"E. @ 935m.asl. This is located in the far eastern area of the Polje, near and east of the village of Dobrelj.
The
development of the spacious Entrance Chamber has been controlled by the
structural geology of the limestone. Immediately inside the entrance portal,
the roof contains avens which open to the surface above. These are clearly
ancient ponors now long abandoned. The extreme rear of the Entrance Chamber
also leads directly to the surface via a steep bedrock limestone slope
giving way to an impressive archway, which also represents an old ponor
complex; (see Photo 6.0.4.5. below).
