The local church is dedicated to Saint Peter and belongs to the Parish of Brezovica.[3]

Blind valley

[edit]

Odolina is a located in a typical karst blind valley. At its upper end the terrain is flysch, and Brašnica Creek flows across the surface. When it reaches the limestone of the Slavnik syncline, the creek first cuts a short gorge into the limestone and then it disappears underground into a large cave.
