Ukanc () is a settlement near Lake Bohinj in the Municipality of Bohinj in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia. It is southwest of the lake. The majority of buildings in the settlement are either hotels or holiday houses.
==Geography== Ukanc is a scattered settlement on a shady rolling plain at the west end of Lake Bohinj at the end of the valley, where mountain walls rise on three sides, closed in by Mount Vogel (), Little Peak (Mali vrh, ), Mount Peršivec (), and Komarča Cliff (). It is connected by road to Bohinjska Bistrica. The soil largely consists of alluvium from the Ukanc Suha River (Ukanška Suha) and Žagar Gorge (Žagarjev graben), as well as the Savica River. In meteorological terms, Ukanc is one of the wettest places in Slovenia.
