Slovenia is witnessing a number of mass movements that threaten housing, infrastructure and people. One of these hazards is the Urbas and Čikla landslides above Koroška Bela, which could be a potential source area for debris flow in adverse weather conditions. The aim of the thesis is to determine to what extent the inhabitants of Koroška Bela feel threatened by this and how prepared they are for the possible triggering of the Urbas and Čikla avalanches below the Potoška Mountain. For this purpose, I carried out a survey to which 66 inhabitants of the settlement responded. I found that the respondents mostly do not feel threatened by the Urbas and Čikla avalanches. This can be attributed to the good organisation of the protection by the alarm system and a number of other various measures, such as small embankments, building houses on the embankments, proper arrangement of rooms and possessions in the buildings, etc.
