Geography
Jezero is a clustered village on a semicircular plain between Saint Anne's Church to the west and Saint Lawrence's Church to the northeast. South of the village in the Zajezero Plain there are low-lying wet meadows and deep Lake Podpeč ( or Jezero pri Podpeči). The lake is fed by several springs in the nearby forest and contains trout, carp, and pike. Swimming is permitted in the lake at one's own risk. Below Saint Lawrence's church are several sets of fields known by the microtoponyms Rušne, Deli, and Cervenke. A water main is connected to Jezero from the hamlet of Podkamnik in the neighboring village of Kamnik pod Krimom. There are several karst caves in the vicinity, including Frog Caves (Krkonove jame), Peršin Shaft (Peršinovo brezno), Little Woods Cave (jama v Malih gozdih), Lipovec Shaft (brezno v Lipovcu), and Big Peak Shaft (brezno pod Velikim vrhom).
