Koblarji (; in older sources also Kovlerji, , Gottscheerish: Kowlarn, in de Kowlara) is a settlement northwest of Kočevje in southern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region. Koblarji Cave (, ) is located in the settlement.
==Name== Koblarji was first attested in written sources under its German name, as Koflern or Koflein. The Slovene name is derived from the German name. The German name is derived from Middle High German kofeler 'hill dweller', from Middle High German kofel 'wooded hill'. An alternative but less likely theory derives the name from Middle High German kobeler 'hut dweller'.
