Summary/Abstract: Paper presents results of two research studies regarding formal integration of mountain-oriented education into Geography school curricula and Geography textbooks for primary schools. First study focuses on quantitative and qualitative analysis of Geography school curricula for primary schools, within which we searched for references, learning objectives, competencies and teaching methods, which are connected to mountain-oriented education. The second study focuses on analysis of Geography textbooks for primary schools, where we analyzed text and photographs, which are connected to mountain-oriented education. The paper presents important findings of how mountain-oriented education is currently presented within Geography lessons in Slovenian primary schools.
