Dreta
The Dreta is a river in Styria, northeastern Slovenia. The river is long. Its source is near the Črnivec Pass in the Kamnik Alps. It flows through the town of Gornji Grad, Bočna, and Šmartno ob Dreti, and merges with the Savinja River in Nazarje. The Dreta Valley is named after the river.Name
The Dreta was attested in written sources in 1243 as super fluvio Driete. The origin of the name is uncertain, but is likely connected with the Croatian hydronym Dretulja and the Slovak hydronym and place name Drietoma. It may be derived from the Indo-European root *dre- 'to flow'.
