[3] Gorenja Sava stands northwest of Kranj's city center, on a terrace between the foot of Mount Saint Margaret (Slovene: Šmarjetna gora) and the right bank of the Sava River.
[1][3] It is connected by road to Spodnja Besnica to the north and to the former village of Kalvarija to the south.
[1][3] Gorenja Sava was attested in historical sources as Sawa in 1291, Zaw in 1347, and Obersaw in 1481, among other variations.
[1] Gorenja Sava was annexed by the city of Kranj in 1957, ending its existence as a separate settlement.
