Frluga (pronounced [fəɾˈluːɡa]; in older sources also Ferluga[2]) is a small settlement in the Gorjanci Hills in the Municipality of Krško in eastern Slovenia, close to the border with Croatia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola. It is now included in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[3]
