The Heathen Maiden (Шаблон:Lang-sl) is a rock formation that resembles a human face. It can be seen in the northern face of Mount Prisojnik near Kranjska Gora, in the Julian Alps in northwestern Slovenia. It is associated with a legend about a chamois known as Goldenhorn and a nymph (vila) dwelling in the mountain.
