Zlokarje (pronounced [ˈzloːkaɾjɛ], in older sources Zlokarji[2]) is a former village in central Slovenia in the Municipality of Zagorje ob Savi. It is now part of the village of Jelševica.[3] It is part of the traditional region of Upper Carniola and is now included in the Central Sava Statistical Region.

Zlokarje is a clustered settlement in the northwestern part of the territory of Jelševica, consisting of two farms at the top of a hill.[3] It lies at the extreme northwest end of a mountain ridge.[1] The Zlokarje Viaduct (Slovene: viadukt Zlokarje) on Slovenia's A1 Freeway is named after Zlokarje and runs immediately west of the village; its right and left spans measure 204 meters (669 ft) and 222 meters (728 ft).[4]
