Jamnik (pronounced [ˈjaːmnik]) is a settlement on the eastern slopes of the Jelovica Plateau in the Municipality of Kranj in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.[2]

The local church just outside the village, dedicated to Saints Primus and Felician, is built at an impressive location on a hill overlooking most of the northern part of the Ljubljana Basin with the Julian Alps as a backdrop towards the northwest and the Kamnik–Savinja Alps towards the east.[3]
