Traditionally the area was part of Lower Carniola and is now included with the rest of the Municipality of Litija in the Central Sava Statistical Region.[3] It includes the hamlets of Spodnji Mamolj (German: Untermamol[2]), Zgornji Mamolj (German: Obermamol[2]), Čebelnik, Češek, Podmilj, Resnarica, and Trinkavs.[4]
