Dolsko ( or ; in older sources also Dolško, ) is a settlement northeast of Ljubljana in the Municipality of Dol pri Ljubljani in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.

==Geography== thumbnail|left|Mlinščica Creek Dolsko lies on the edge of a terrace 2 to 3 m high above the Sava River just west of the point where the Sava leaves the relatively flat Sava Basin and enters hilly territory. Mlinščica Creek (also known locally as Mežca Creek), a tributary of the Sava, flows through the southern outskirts of the settlement. The soil is sandy and fertile. ==Name== Dolsko was attested in written sources in 1763–87 as Dousko. The name is derived from a clipped noun phrase, Dolsko (selo/polje) '(village/field near) Dol'. Locally, the name is pronounced Doškə.
