Vrtovče () is a small village in the hills south of the Vipava Valley in the Municipality of Ajdovščina in the Littoral region of Slovenia.
==Geography== Vrtovče consists of the main village core and the smaller hamlet of Lisjaki (also known as Lisjaki na Hribu) to the southeast. Nearby elevations include Školj Hill () to the west, Sharp Peak (Ostri vrh, ) to the southeast, and Tibot Hill () to the south. Pralo Creek is fed by a spring south of Vrtovče; the site is known as Pri Studencu (literally, 'at the spring'). The name Pralo comes from the verb prati 'to wash' because the clean water of the creek was used for laundering.
