Zapreval (; in older sources also Zaprevolam, ) is a dispersed settlement in the Škofja Loka Hills in the Municipality of Gorenja Vas–Poljane in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
==Name== Zapreval was attested in historical sources as Prewalt in 1291, Prewal in 1453, and Dolenigriboitzi and Gorenigriboitzi in 1500, among other names and spellings. The name is a fused prepositional phrase that has lost case inflection, from za 'behind' + Preval (literally, 'crest, mountain pass'), referring to its position behind Preval Hill (elevation ) southeast of the village. Locally, the village is also known as za Prevalom, and the name also appears reduced through apocope as Zaprev.
