The hilly area is about 50 kilometers west of Ljubljana , 40 kilometers northeast of Trieste , and 20 kilometers east of Gorica (Gorizia, Gorizia). It extends with altitudes of 700 to 1000 meters west of Idrija over 20 km, and covers about 200 km².

The landscape is located between the Idrijca valley in the north, east and south-east, and the Trebuščica , a tributary of the Idrijca, in the west and south-west. To the northwest lies the Šentviška Planoia , north the Cerkljansko hribovje , east the Rovtarsko hribovje , south the Trnovski gozd (Ternovan Forest), and west the Govci range of hills . The valley Hotenja - Kanomljica runs through the middle of the area from Dolenja Trebuša to Idrija. In the northern part, the Jelenk is the highest point at 1107 m.

The area forms the transition from the Alps to the high karst of the Dinarides , the mountainous region itself is already caste and caves, but is still well forested.
