Miklarji (; also Miklarje; , Gottscheerish: Prunngreit) is a small remote settlement in the hills west of Črnomelj in the White Carniola area of southeastern Slovenia. It no longer has any permanent residents. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region.

==Name== The Slovene name Miklarji is a plural form. Such toponyms are generally derived from the names of local inhabitants and, in the case of Miklarji, the name is connected with the Miklar farm. Similar plural place names in the Kočevje region include Cvišlerji, Koblarji, and Štalcerji. The root of the Slovene name, Mikl-, is believed to be of German origin, named for the first settler in the area, Mik(e)l (< Middle High German michel 'large'). The settlement's standard German name Brunngeräuth literally means 'clearing with a spring'.
