Pohorje (German: Bachergebirge) is a mountain range in northern Slovenia, near the towns of Dravograd and Maribor. Made of metamorphic rock, it is geologically part of the Central Eastern Alps, though due to his location south of the Drava River it is commonly regarded as a Southern Limestone Alps range.
