Mali Vrh pri Šmarju (in Slovenian pronounced as /ˈmaːli ˈʋəɾx pɾi ˈʃmaːɾju/; German: Kleingupf[2]) is a settlement just northwest of Šmarje–Sap in the Municipality of Grosuplje in central Slovenia. The area is part of the historical region of Lower Carniola. The municipality is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.[3]
