Pečine () is a village in the mountains above the right bank of the Idrijca River in the Municipality of Tolmin in the Littoral region of Slovenia. It includes the hamlets of Črni Vrh, Kabiunk, Kal, Maraževec, Podkal, Travnik, and Stari Rut.
==Name== The name Pečine is a plural form derived from the word peč 'large cliff, rocky wall' (which developed from the earlier meaning 'hollow in a cliff', ultimately from 'place for cooking'). Like similar names (e.g., Peč, Pečice, Pečke, etc.), it refers to a local landscape element.
