Krma is an alpine valley in the Julian Alps in the Upper Carniola region of northwestern Slovenia. The entire valley lies in Triglav National Park.

==Name== The name Krma is of uncertain origin, possibly derived from a substrate root such as *karma or *garma, which may be preserved in Istrian Romance karma 'rock crevice'; it is less likely to be related to Albanian karmë 'rocky hill'. It cannot be excluded that the name may also be connected with the Slovene common noun krma 'fodder' because of historical pasturing activity in the valley.
