Martinj Hrib (pronounced [maɾˈtiːn ˈxɾːip], in older sources also Martinji Hrib[2]) is a former village in western Slovenia in the Municipality of Logatec. It is now part of the town of Logatec.[3] It is part of the traditional region of Inner Carniola and is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.
Martinj Hrib is located in the southeastern part of the Logatec Karst Field (Slovene: Logaško polje), along the road from Logatec to Laze. The area is heavily karstified; the land is forested to the east and south, with sinkholes and caves, as well as the Logatec Collapse Dolines (Slovene: Logaške koliševke), which were created when the roofs of caves fell in.[4]
